Protein Function Also known as MPP1 which is required for cell growth and maintenance; palmitoylated protein which is required for platelet activation; prototypical member of a family of signaling proteins termed MAGUKs (membrane associated guanylate kinase homologues); scaffolding protein in erythrocytes stabilizing the actin cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane; regulates neutrophil polarity, and functions as a positive upstream effector of Akt phosphorylation.
Biochemical Properties In mature erythrocytes, p55 forms a ternary complex with protein 4.1R and glycophorin C with implications in the regulation of cell shape and membrane stability; The predicted amino acid sequence of p55 does not contain any consensus sequence corresponding to the catalytic domains of protein kinases but does contain a conserved sequence found in the noncatalytic domains of oncogene-encoded tyrosine kinases. This conserved src homology 3 (SH-3) motif appears to suppress the tyrosine kinase activity of various oncoproteins and has also been found in several plasma membrane associated proteins involved in signal transduction.
PTMs Palmitoylation - four cysteine residues in p55, including one in the SH-3 motif, that may provide potential sites for palmitoylation
Site(s) of PTM(s)

N-glycosylation, O-glycosylation,
Phosphorylation
Predicted Disorder Regions NA
DisProt Annotation
TM Helix Prediction No TM helices
Significance of PTMs enhances the hydrophobicity of a protein,; regulate protein trafficking, sorting, stability, and activity; functions as a regulatory mechanism or molecular switch, directing protein-lipid and protein-protein interactions and plays a role in the regulation of cellular responses to external stimuli
Additional Comments Slower dynamics of palmitoylation in erythrocytes from patients suffering from chronic myelogenous leukemia, which are less stable than normal erythrocytes
