Abstract
C-terminal domain nuclear envelope phosphatase 1 (CTDNEP1, formerly Dullard) is a member of the newly emerging protein phosphatases and has been recognized in neuronal cell tissues in amphibians. It contains the phosphatase domain in the C-terminal, and the sequences are conserved in various taxa of organisms. CTDNEP1 has several roles in novel biological activities such as neural tube development in embryos, nuclear membrane biogenesis, regulation of bone morphogenetic protein signaling, and suppression of aggressive medulloblastoma. The three-dimensional structure of CTDNEP1 and the detailed action mechanisms of CTDNEP1's functions have yet to be determined for several reasons. Therefore, CTDNEP1 is a protein phosphatase of interest due to recent exciting and essential works. In this short review, we summarize the presented biological roles, possible substrates, interacting proteins, and research prospects of CTDNEP1.
