General annotation (Comments)

Function

Dual specificity protein phosphatase. May be involved in the control of glycogen metabolism, particularly in monitoring for and preventing the formation of poorly branched glycogen molecules (polyglucosans). Acts as a scaffold protein to facilitate PPP1R3C/PTG ubiquitination by NHLRC1/malin. Forms a complex with NHLRC1/malin and HSP70 and this complex suppresses the cellular toxicity of misfolded proteins by promoting their degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) By similarity.

Catalytic activity

Protein tyrosine phosphate + H2O = protein tyrosine + phosphate.

A phosphoprotein + H2O = a protein + phosphate.

Subunit structure

Interacts with itself; interacts also with PPP1R3C, HIRIP5 and EPM2AIP1. Binds polyglucosans and glycogen. Interacts with NHLRC1/malin (via the NHL repeats). Forms a complex with NHLRC1/malin and HSP70 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm By similarity. Endoplasmic reticulum By similarity. Note: Under glycogenolytic conditions localizes to the nucleus By similarity.

Post-translational modification

Polyubiquitinated by NHLRC1/malin By similarity.

Phosphorylation on Ser-25 by AMPK affects the phosphatase activity of the enzyme and its ability to homodimerize and interact with NHLRC1, PPP1R3C or PRKAA2 By similarity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family.

Contains 1 CBM20 (carbohydrate binding type-20) domain.

Contains 1 tyrosine-protein phosphatase domain.
