Function
- may regulate disassembly of focal adhesions
- may localize receptor-like tyrosine phosphatases type 2A at specific sites on the plasma membrane, possibly regulating their interaction with the extracellular environment & their association with substrates
- phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR
- forms homodimers & heterodimers with liprins-alpha & liprins-beta
- interacts with the second PTPase domain of PTPRD, PTPRF & PTPRS
- interacts with GIT1, KIF1A & GRIP1
Structure
- the N-terminal coiled coil regions mediate homodimerization preferentially & heterodimerization type alpha/alpha
- the C-terminal, non-coiled coil regions mediate heterodimerization type alpha/beta & interaction with PTPRD, PTPRF & PTPRS
- belongs to the liprin family, liprin-alpha subfamily
- contains 3 SAM (sterile alpha motif) domains
Compartment
- cytoplasm
- colocalizes with PTPRF at the ends of focal adhesions most proximal to the cell nucleus
