PTPN6 (Tyrosine-protein Phosphatase Non-receptor Type 6, Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase 1C, PTP-1C, Hematopoietic Cell Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase, SH-PTP1, Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase SHP-1, HCP, PTP1C) (Biotin)

PTPN6 is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes including cell growth, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation. N-terminal part of this PTP contains two tandem Src homolog (SH2) domains, which act as protein phospho-tyrosine binding domains, and mediate the interaction of this PTP with its substrates. This PTP is expressed primarily in hematopoietic cells, and functions as an important regulator of multiple signaling pathways in hematopoietic cells. This PTP has been...
