Function

• probable anti-phosphatase (putative)
• interacts with BCAP31

Structure

• belongs to the PTPLA family
• shares some similarity with tyrosine phosphatase proteins but it has probably no phosphatase activity

Compartment

• endoplasmic reticulum membrane

Expression

• expressed in testis, spleen, prostate, colon & heart > thymus, ovary, small intestine, peripheral blood leukocytes, liver, skeletal muscle & pancreas > kidney, placenta, brain & lung
• turns over rapidly through degradation by the proteasome system

More general terms

• glycoprotein
