Question

Assuming a protein is phosphorylated by a kinase and dephosphorylated by a phosphatase, inhibiting a protein phosphatase will typically have the following effects:

Increasing the overall ratio of phosphorylated to non-phosphorylated forms of a protein (i.e. increased phosphorylation)

Decreasing phosphorylation of a protein

Not altering the levels of a phosphorylated protein

Increasing the expression of the total and phosphorylated protein

Decreasing the expression of the total and phosphorylated protein

Increasing the overall ratio of phosphorylated to non-phosphorylated forms of a protein (i.e. increased phosphorylation)

Decreasing phosphorylation of a protein

Not altering the levels of a phosphorylated protein

Increasing the expression of the total and phosphorylated protein

Decreasing the expression of the total and phosphorylated protein

Explanation / Answer

Increasing the overall ratio of phosphorylated to non-phosphorylated forms of a protein (i.e. increased phosphorylation)
