Phosphoprotein phosphatase 1 (PP1) belongs to a certain class of phosphatases known as protein serine/ threonine phosphatases. This type of phosphatase includes metal-dependent protein phosphatases (PPMs) and aspartate-based phosphatases. PP1 has been found to be important in the control of glycogen metabolism muscle contraction cell progression neuronal activities splicing of RNA mitosis cell division apoptosis protein synthesis and regulation of membrane receptors and channels.
