Summary: Enables several functions, including beta-2 adrenergic receptor binding activity; enzyme binding activity; and protein antigen binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to ethanol; negative regulation of transport; and regulation of phosphate metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within regulation of protein autophosphorylation; regulation of protein catabolic process; and regulation of signaling receptor activity. Located in terminal bouton. Part of protein phosphatase type 2A complex. Biomarker of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PPP2CA (protein phosphatase 2 catalytic subunit alpha).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
