Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 9 is anenzyme that in humans is encoded by thePTPN9gene.[5][6]
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes includingcell growth,differentiation,mitotic cycle, andoncogenic transformation. This PTP contains anN-terminal domain that shares a significant similarity with yeast SEC14, which is a protein that has phosphatidylinositol transfer activity and is required for protein secretion through theGolgi complex in yeast. This PTP was found to be activated by poly-phosphoinositide, and is thought to be involved in signaling events regulatingphagocytosis.[6]
