OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the expression of protein tyrosine kinase 2 and protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 11, which respectively encode focal adhesion kinase protein and src homology 2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase 2, in hematopoietic cells from patients with myelodysplastic syndromes. METHODS Protein tyrosine kinase 2 and tyrosine phospha...

Protein tyrosine phosphatases regulate physiological processes including growth, differentiation, metabolism and the cell cycle. Together with tyrosine kinases, they control the phosphorylation state of tyrosine residues of signaling proteins. An increased level of protein phosphorylation results in abnormal proliferation and many cancer types show a mutation or deletion of a protein tyrosine p...

An extracellular phosphatase was purified to homogeneity from the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae with a 41.0% yield. The molecular mass and isoelectric point of the purified enzyme were about 82.5 kDa and 9.5 respectively. The optimum pH and temperature were about 5.5 and 75 degrees C when using O-phospho-L-tyrosine as substrate. The protein displayed high stability in a pH rang...

allergic rhinitis (ar) is an ige-mediated upper airway disease, and its impact on asthma has been widely recognized. protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor 22 (ptpn22) gene and the cytotoxic t-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (ctla-4) gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with several immune-related diseases. here we investigated the reffect of these two genes’ polymorphisms ...

Background and objectives: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease with a complex genetic background. The protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) is a lymphoid specific protein tyrosine phosphatase which is involved in negative regulation of T cell response. Several studies have assessed the association between PTPN22 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with RA ...

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and T-cell protein (TC-PTP) play non-redundant negative regulatory roles in activation, tumor antigen presentation, insulin leptin signaling, are potential targets for several therapeutic applications. Here, we report the development of a highly potent selective small molecule degrader DU-14 both PTP1B TC-PTP. mediated TC-PTP degradation requires target p...
