Background Information
Myosin phosphatase target subunit 1(MYPT1), which is also called PPP1R12A, is one of the subunits of myosin phosphatase. Phospho-MYPT1 (Thr853) is a phosphorylated form of MYPT1 (myosin phosphatase target subunit 1) at threonine 853. This phosphorylation event is associated with the regulation of smooth muscle contraction and cell motility. The Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is known to phosphorylate MYPT1 at Thr853, which in turn suppresses the activity of myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP), leading to an increase in myosin light chain phosphorylation and subsequent smooth muscle contraction.
