protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 42 Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 42 (PPP1R42), also known as leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 67 (lrrc67) or testis leucine-rich repeat (TLRR) protein, plays a role in centrosome separation. PPP1R42 has been shown to interact with the well-conserved signaling protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) and thereby increasing PP1's activity, which counters centrosome separation. Inhibition of PPP1R42 expression increases the number of centrosomes per cell while its depletion reduces the activity of PP1 leading to activation of NEK2, the kinase responsible for phosphorylation of centrosomal linker proteins promoting centrosome separation.
