Phosphatase Subfamily Ptp36E

Phosphatase Classification: Fold CC1: Superfamily CC1: Family PTP: Subfamily Ptp36E (CG7180)

Evolution

The Ptp36E subfamily is found in ecdysozoa.

Domains

Ptp36E has tandem PTPs. The overall sequences are close to PTPRKs. All the other PTPs that have tandem PTP domains are receptor PTPs, but interestingly, we can not detect any transmembrane region from either Drosophila melanogaster or C. elegans sequence using the programs TMHMM and TOPCONS.

Functions

The function of the subfamily in either Drosophila melanogaster and C. elegans is unknown.
