Background
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. Members of the PTP family share a highly conserved catalytic motif, which is essential for the catalytic activity. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes including cell growth, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation. Epidermal growth factor receptor and the adaptor protein Shc were reported to be substrates of this PTP, which suggested the roles in growth factor mediated cell signaling. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. Two highly related but distinctly processed pseudogenes that localize to chromosomes 1 and 13, respectively, have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011],
Function
catalytic activity:Protein tyrosine phosphate + H(2)O = protein tyrosine + phosphate.,similarity:Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non-receptor class 1 subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 tyrosine-protein phosphatase domain.,subunit:Interacts with FAM82A2.,tissue specificity:PTPA isoform is probably the major PTP expressed in human tissues. PTPB isoform was found in T-cells and in placenta.,
