PTPα (phospho Tyr798) Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-PTPα (phospho Tyr798) Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

The protein encoded by PTPRA (protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type A) 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. This PTP contains an extracellular domain, a single transmembrane segment and two tandem intracytoplasmic catalytic domains, and thus represents a receptor-type PTP. This PTP has been shown to dephosphorylate and activate Src family tyrosine kinases, and is implicated in the regulation of integrin signaling, cell adhesion and proliferation. Three alternatively spliced variants of PTPRA, which encode two distinct isoforms, have been reported.
