SHP2 Antibody

The tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 is recruited into tyrosine-kinase signalling pathways through binding of its two amino-terminal SH2 domains to specific phosphotyrosine motifs, concurrent with its re-localization and stimulation of phosphatase activity. It can potentiate signalling through the MAP-kinase pathway and is required during early mouse development for gastrulation. SHP2 is specifically required in mesenchyme cells of the progress zone(PZ), directly beneath the distal ectoderm of the limb bud. Rather than integrating proliferative signals, it probably exerts its effects on limb development...
