Abstract
We have proposed computer-generated models of the catalytic subunits o f the serine-threonine protein phosphatases PP1 and PP2A complexed wit h their endogenous substrate phospho-DARPP-32, and several known natur ally occurring inhibitors. This study is part of an overall effort to elucidate the signal transduction pathways in which PP1 and PP2A may p lay an important role. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
