PPP2R5A
PPP2R5A (Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2A 56 kDa regulatory subunit alpha isoform) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
Overview
The B regulatory subunit might modulate substrate selectivity and catalytic activity, and might also direct the localisation of the catalytic enzyme to a particular subcellular compartment.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.59 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.69, affected pathway 0.89, animal model 0.62, genetic association 0.19).

Notes
top- Written by scripts/fetch-cancer-genes.ts from CIViC, Open Targets, IntOGen, HGNC and UniProt; the function text is UniProt's, condensed and in UK spelling. Roles: none stated by the sources. Evidence tier "association-only" is the strongest of those signals.
- Prevalence not recorded: none of the sources gives a positivity rate.
