ANTIBODY IHC RELIABILITY
Data reliability description
RNA-based expert annotation gave inconclusive results. Caution, targets protein from more than one gene. Antibody staining not consistent with RNA expression data.
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
PTP4A3 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
PRL-3, PRL-R, PRL3
Description
Protein tyrosine phosphatase type IVA, member 3 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Protein tyrosine phosphatases are cell signaling molecules that play regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes. Studies of this class of protein tyrosine phosphatase in mice demonstrates that they are prenylated in vivo, suggesting their association with cell plasma membrane. The encoded protein may enhance cell proliferation, and overexpression of this gene has been implicated in tumor metastasis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
