Caenorhabditis elegans Enables calcium ion binding activity and calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including determination of adult lifespan; male mating behavior; and response to temperature stimulus. Located in several cellular components, including neuronal cell body; nucleus; and plasma membrane bounded cell projection. Expressed in several structures, including germ line; head neurons; muscle cell; tail neurons; and ventral nerve cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including aortic valve stenosis; cholangiocarcinoma; and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 91. Is an ortholog of human PPP3CB (protein phosphatase 3 catalytic subunit beta) and PPP3CC (protein phosphatase 3 catalytic subunit gamma).
