<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="DE" style="font-size:11.0pt">The large majority of ser/thr dephosphorylation is performed by the PPP family, comprised of just seven families: PP1, PP2A, PP2B/PP3/calcineurin (CN), PP4, PP5, PP6 and PP7. While it has been known
 for more than two decades that PP1 and CN engage their regulators using short linear motifs (SLiMs), the emerging view is that regulator and substrate engagement via SLiMs is likely conserved throughout the entire PPP family, with SLiMs now also identified
 for PP4 and PP2A-B56. Remarkably, new mechanisms that modulate regulator and substrate binding continue to be discovered. For example, we recently discovered that dynamic charge-charge interactions modulate the affinities of PPP-specific SLiMs for their cognate
 PPPs. We also discovered that similar dynamic electrostatic interactions can, in some cases, actively direct substrate specificity.  Here, we present recent data, based on cryo-EM structures of PP2A:B55 bound to inhibitors, substrates and regulators, that
 illustrate the diverse and novel mechanisms used by regulators and substrates to engage their cognate PPPs and, in turn, direct PPP holoenzyme formation and activity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
