Description_x000D_ General description_x000D_ PTPdelta is a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family. PTPs are known to be signaling molecules that regulate a variety of cellular processes including cell growth, differentiation, mitotic cycle, and oncogenic transformation. This PTP contains an extracellular region, a single transmembrane segment and two tandem intracytoplasmic catalytic domains, thus represents a receptor-type PTP. The extracellular region of this protein is composed of three Ig-like and eight fibronectin type III-like domains. Studies of the similar genes in chick and fly suggest the role of this PTP is in promoting neurite growth, and regulating neurons axon guidance._x000D_ Immunogen_x000D_ PTPDELTA (NP_002830, 1292-1326)_x000D_ This antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide in the C-terminal region of human PTPdelta._x000D_ Physical form_x000D_ Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide.
