Protein phosphatases act in a coordinated way on cell signaling pathways that play a role in various physiological and pathological processes. These enzymes are found in several cellular compartments, such as cytosol and mitochondria, and the regulation of the activity of these enzymes is central to a better understanding of these processes. Although knowledge about mitochondrial protein …
Protein dephosphorylation of protein phosphatases is a post-translational modification essential for cellular maintenance and regulatory processes. These enzymes can dephosphorylate tyrosine or serine/threonine residues dependent on nucleophilic residues such as cysteine, aspartate, or histidine. Protein phosphatases are located in different cellular compartments such as mitochondria. How…
Protein kinases and phosphatases are main actors in several signaling pathways and cellular functions, being responsible for the balance in the activation and production of molecules through the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of their substrates. Different works have shown the importance of protein phosphatases located in sub-compartments of the mitochondria. Among them, DUSPs are …

The dephosphorylation action of protein phosphatases is extremely important for the control of several cell functions. These enzymes can be found in several subcellular compartments such as the cytosol and mitochondria. Cytoplasmatic protein phosphatases are highly regulated by oxidants, however, the redox regulation of mitochondrial protein phosphatases is still unknown, even though this…
The cell division process - cytokinesis - in bacteria occurs by binary fission through a molecular machine called divisome. The divisome is a protein complex that acts coordinately to form the division septum. Among these proteins, FtsZ, a cytoplasmic GTPase, is a key protein in the cytokinesis process. FtsZ polymerizes and forms the Z ring, a protein scaffold that organizes and initiates…
