Recombinant human PRL-2/PTP4A2 protein
Protein tyrosine phosphatase type IVA 2 isoform 1, also known as PTP4A2, belongs to a small class of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTP4A2 is localized to the early endosome that play regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes. This protein was found to interact with the beta-subunit of Rab geranylgeranyltransferase II (beta GGT II), and thus may function as a regulator of GGT II activity. Overexpression of this gene in mammalian cells conferred a transformed phenotype, which suggested its role in tumorigenesis. Recombinant human PTP4A2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
