(Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Type IVA, Member 1 (PTP4A1))
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a small class of prenylated protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), which contains a PTP domain and a characteristic C-terminal prenylation motif. PTPs are cell signaling molecules that play regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes. This tyrosine phosphatase is a nuclear protein, but may primarily associate with plasma membrane. The surface membrane association of this protein depends on its C-terminal prenylation. Overexpression of this gene in mammalian cells conferred a transformed phenotype, which implicated its role in the tumorigenesis. Studies in rat suggested that this gene may be an immediate-early gene in mitogen-stimulated cells.PRL phosphatases increase cell proliferation by stimulating progression from G1 into S phase. PRL-1 function is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner and implicate PRL-1 in regulating progression through mitosis, possibly by modulating spindle dynamics.Synonyms: PRL-1, PTP(CAAXI), PTPCAAX1, Protein tyrosine phosphatase type IVA 1, Protein-tyrosine phosphatase 4a1, Protein-tyrosine phosphatase of regenerating liver 1
