B-type regulatory subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A); Rts1p and Cdc55p are alternative regulatory subunits for PP2A catalytic subunits, Pph21p and Pph22p; PP2A-Rts1p protects cohesin when recruited by Sgo1p to the pericentromere; highly enriched at centromeres in the absence of Cdc55p; required for maintenance of septin ring organization during cytokinesis, for ring disassembly in G1 and for dephosphorylation of septin, Shs1p; homolog of the mammalian B' subunit of PP2A
