PPP1R16B, ANKRD4, KIAA0823, Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory inhibitor subunit 16B, Ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 4, CAAX box protein TIMAP, TGF-beta-inhibited membrane-associated protein, hTIMAP
The protein encoded by this gene is membrane-associated and contains five ankyrin repeats, a protein phosphatase-1-interacting domain, and a carboxy-terminal CAAX box domain. Synthesis of the encoded protein is inhibited by transforming growth factor beta-1. The protein may bind to the membrane through its CAAX box domain and may act as a signaling molecule through interaction with protein phosphatase-1. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar processing to generate mature protein.
