Ptp4a3 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to enable protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including endothelial cell migration; positive regulation of establishment of protein localization; and positive regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor; positive regulation of vascular permeability; and regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor signaling pathway. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human PTP4A3 (protein tyrosine phosphatase 4A3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 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 rat Ptp4a3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
