catalytic domain of tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 1 and type 2 Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 1 (PTPN1) type 2 (PTPN2) belong to the family of classical tyrosine-specific protein tyrosine phosphatases, (PTPs). PTPs (EC 3.1.3.48) catalyze the dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine peptides. PTPN1 (or PTP-1B) is the first PTP to be purified and characterized and is the prototypical intracellular PTP found in a wide variety of human tissues. It dephosphorylates and regulates the activity of a number of receptor tyrosine kinases, including the insulin receptor, the EGF receptor, and the PDGF receptor. PTPN2 (or TCPTP), a tumor suppressor, dephosphorylates and inactivates EGFRs, Src family kinases, Janus-activated kinases (JAKs)-1 and -3, and signal transducer and activators of transcription (STATs)-1, -3 and -5, in a cell type and context-dependent manner.
