REGULATION OF PP2Ac STABILITY DISCOVERY OF A NOVEL α4 MONOUBIQUITINATION-DEPENDENT MECHANISM THAT IS ALTERED IN ALZHEIMERS DISEASE

Studies described in this thesis identify a novel mechanism for α4s regulation of PP2Ac stability. α4 binds the PP2A catalytic subunit (PP2Ac) and the microtubule-associated E3 ubiquitin ligase MID1, and through unknown mechanisms can both reduce and enhance PP2Ac stability. We show MID1-dependent m...
