Pseudophosphatases (obsolete)

List of pseudophosphatases

To be added.

Functions

• Receptor PTPs. Most receptor PTPs have two tandem phosphatase domains. The 2nd phosphatase domain has no or negligible activity. The 2nd domain can interact with 1st domain in both intra- and intermolecular manners [1].

Controversial

• PTPRN (IA-2) and PTPRN2. Human PTPRN and PTPRN2 have been proposed to be enzymatically inactive due to mutations at catalytic Cx5R motif and WPD motif [2]. However, PTPRN2 has been reported to be phosphatidylinositol phosphatase [3].
