Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nPTPα (PTPRA) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine phosphatase implicated in the regulation of Src family kinases during the G2 to mitosis entry point. Two identified splice variants differ in the size of the extracellular region; the shorter form appears to be ubiquitously expressed while the larger protein is more limited in distribution (1). The cytoplasmic region of PTPα contains two putative catalytic domains. One phosphatase domain (D1) exhibits catalytic activity while the other (D2) may regulate phosphatase activity by allowing receptor dimer formation (2,3). PTPα is a physiological regulator of Src and Src family kinases (4). Constitutive phosphorylation of the carboxy-terminal Tyr789 of PTPα is essential for dephosphorylation of Src at Tyr527. Phosphorylation of PTPα at this residue also allows binding of the Grb2 inhibitor, restricting PTPα activation of Src (5,6). PKC-mediated phosphorylation of the PTP at Ser180 and Ser204 also increases PTPα phosphatase activity (7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nHEPTP; HLPR; HPTPA; HPTPalpha; Leukocyte common antigen-related peptide (protein tyrosine phosphate); LRP; protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type A; protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, A; protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, alpha polypeptide; Protein-tyrosine phosphatase alpha; PTPA; PTPase-alpha; PTPLCA-related phosphatase; PTPRA; PTPRL2; R-PTP-alpha; Receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase alpha; RPTPA; tyrosine phosphatase alpha\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R Mk\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 145\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799515910313,"sku":"4481S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-4481s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
