Several case of colorectal cancer and hepatocellular carcinomas showed moderate to strong cytoplasmic positivity often with a granular pattern. Most remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
PTP4A1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
PRL-1, PTPCAAX1
Description
Protein tyrosine phosphatase type IVA, member 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of a small class of prenylated protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), which contain a PTP domain and a characteristic C-terminal prenylation motif. The encoded protein is a cell signaling molecule that plays regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation and migration. The protein may also be involved in cancer development and metastasis. This tyrosine phosphatase is a nuclear protein, but may associate with plasma membrane by means of its prenylation motif. Pseudogenes related to this gene are located on chromosomes 1, 2, 5, 7, 11 and X. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]
