Ptprn2 Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable histone H2AXY142 phosphatase activity; non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine phosphatase activity; and protein tyrosine phosphatase activity, metal-dependent. Involved in negative regulation of GTPase activity. Located in endoplasmic reticulum lumen; secretory granule; and terminal bouton. Is active in synaptic vesicle membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prediabetes syndrome and type 1 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human PTPRN2 (protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type N2).

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 rat Ptprn2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
