Ptpn1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including IRE1-mediated unfolded protein response; peptidyl-tyrosine dephosphorylation; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within insulin receptor signaling pathway and protein dephosphorylation. Located in early endosome and sorting endosome. Is active in endosome lumen. Is expressed in central nervous system; midbrain; and superior colliculus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease; essential hypertension; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PTPN1 (protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ptpn1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
