Ptprz1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including oligodendrocyte differentiation; peptidyl-tyrosine dephosphorylation; and regulation of myelination. Acts upstream of or within axonogenesis and hematopoietic progenitor cell differentiation. Located in perineuronal net and plasma membrane. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cranial nerve; eye; genitourinary system; and limb. Orthologous to human PTPRZ1 (protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type Z1).

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 Ptprz1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
