Function
[PTPRE_HUMAN] Isoform 1 plays a critical role in signaling transduction pathways and phosphoprotein network topology in red blood cells. May play a role in osteoclast formation and function (By similarity). Isoform 2 acts as a negative regulator of insulin receptor (IR) signaling in skeletal muscle. Regulates insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor (IR) and insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1), phosphorylation of protein kinase B and glycogen synthase kinase-3 and insulin induced stimulation of glucose uptake (By similarity). Isoform 1 and isoform 2 act as a negative regulator of FceRI-mediated signal transduction leading to cytokine production and degranulation, most likely by acting at the level of SYK to affect downstream events such as phosphorylation of SLP76 and LAT and mobilization of Ca(2+).
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Here, new crystal structures are presented of the isolated membrane-proximal D1 and distal D2 domains of protein tyrosine phosphatase epsilon (PTP), a protein tyrosine phosphatase that has been shown to play a positive role in the survival of human breast cancer cells. A triple mutant of the PTP D2 domain (A455N/V457Y/E597D) was also constructed to reconstitute the residues of the PTP D1 catalytic domain that are important for phosphatase activity, resulting in only a slight increase in the phosphatase activity compared with the native D2 protein. The structures reported here are of sufficient resolution for structure-based drug design, and a microarray-based assay for high-throughput screening to identify small-molecule inhibitors of the PTP D1 domain is also described.
