description | Myotubularin-related protein 6 (MTMR6) is a catalytically active member of the myotubularin (MTM) family, which possess 3-phosphatase activity dephosphorylating phosphatidylinositol-3-phoshate and phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate. MTMR6 forms a heteromer with enzymatically inactive MTMR9. MTMR9 increases MTMR6 binding to phospholipids and increases the 3-phosphatase activity of MTMR6 []. MTMR6 is reported to be involved in the regulation of the Ca2+-activated K+ channel KCa3.1 []and apoptosis []. The cellular localisation of MTMR6 is regulated by Rab1B in the early secretory and autophagic pathways []. |
