Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Enables protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity. Involved in circadian regulation of gene expression; entrainment of circadian clock by photoperiod; and positive regulation of glycogen biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including branching morphogenesis of an epithelial tube; positive regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway in absence of ligand; and protein dephosphorylation. Located in cytoplasm and nucleoplasm. Part of protein phosphatase type 1 complex. Is expressed in several structures, including brain blood vessel; cerebral cortex; esophagus; eye; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PPP1CA (protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit alpha).
