|
Function |
Protein tyrosine phosphatase which stimulates progression from G1 into S phase during mitosis. Promotes tumors. Inhibits geranylgeranyl transferase type II activity by blocking the association between RABGGTA and RABGGTB. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14643450}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane. Early endosome. Cytoplasm.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitously expressed, with highest levels in skeletal muscle, heart and thymus. Overexpressed in prostate tumor tissue. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10940933, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11734337, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8661118}.
