Type: | Family | Name: | Protein-tyrosine phosphatase SIW14-like, eukaryotic |
Description: | Arabidopsis thalianagene At1g05000 encodes a protein that contains the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) signature motif and has been annotated as a putative dual specificity phosphatase []. The three-dimensional structure resembles the conserved catalytic PTP domain. Sequence analysis shows that similar proteins exist in other plants and fungi. The Saccharomyces cerevisiae(Baker's yeast) SIW14 protein belongs to this group of PTPs, and has been shown to be involved in the organisation of the actin cytoskeleton in response to nutrient limitation []. | Short Name: | Tyr_Pase_SIW14-lik_euk |
