Function[PTN1_HUMAN] Tyrosine-protein phosphatase which acts as a regulator of endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response. Mediates dephosphorylation of EIF2AK3/PERK; inactivating the protein kinase activity of EIF2AK3/PERK. May play an important role in CKII- and p60c-src-induced signal transduction cascades. May regulate the EFNA5-EPHA3 signaling pathway which modulates cell reorganization and cell-cell repulsion.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedProtein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) 1B (PTP1B) has been implicated as a key negative regulator of both insulin and leptin signaling cascades. We identified several salicylic acid-based ligands for the second phosphotyrosine binding site of PTP1B using a NMR-based screening. Structure-based linking with a catalytic site-directed oxalylarylaminobenzoic acid-based pharmacophore led to the identification of a novel series of potent PTP1B inhibitors exhibiting 6-fold selectivity over the highly homologous T-cell PTPase (TCPTP) and high selectivity over other phosphatases.
