A PHYLOGENETIC SURVEY OF MYOTUBULARIN GENES OF EUKARYOTES: DISTRIBUTION, PROTEIN STRUCTURE, EVOLUTION, AND GENE EXPRESSION

A phylogenetic survey of myotubularin genes of eukaryotes: distribution, protein structure, evolution, and gene expression

Abstract Background Phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) lipids, produced and modified by PtdIns kinases and phosphatases, are critical to the regulation of diverse cellular functions.The myotubularin PtdIns-phosphate phosphatases have been well characterized in yeast and especially animals, where multiple isoforms, both catalytically activ
