Description

PPP1R3B encodes a regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1), targeting PP1 to glycogen-associated substrates. It plays a critical role in glycogen metabolism by modulating glycogen synthase and phosphorylase activities. The gene is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in skeletal muscle and liver.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Glycogen storage disease type XV Loss-of-function mutations in PPP1R3B impair PP1 targeting to glycogen, leading to abnormal glycogen accumulation and myopathy. OMIM #613507
Type 2 diabetes Variants in PPP1R3B are associated with altered glycogen synthesis and insulin resistance. ClinVar, NCBI

Protein Summary

PPP1R3B is a 284-amino acid protein that functions as a glycogen-targeting subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). It contains a carbohydrate-binding module that localizes PP1 to glycogen particles, regulating glycogen synthase and phosphorylase activities. The protein is essential for normal glycogen storage and glucose homeostasis.
