the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family, which was isolated
and identified based on its enzymatic activity and amino acid
sequence. PTPs catalyze the hydrolysis of the phosphate monoesters
specifically on tyrosine residues. Members of the PTP family share
a highly conserved catalytic motif, which is essential for the
catalytic activity. 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 has been shown to act as a negative regulator of insulin
signaling by dephosphorylating the phosphotryosine residues of
insulin receptor kinase. This PTP was also reported to
dephosphorylate epidermal growth factor receptor kinase, as well as
JAK2 and TYK2 kinases, which implicated the role of this PTP in
cell growth control, and cell response to interferon stimulation.

NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is the founding member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family, which was isolated and identified based on its enzymatic activity and amino acid sequence. PTPs catalyze the hydrolysis of the phosphate monoesters specifically on tyrosine residues. Members of the PTP family share a highly conserved catalytic motif, which is essential for the catalytic activity. 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 has been shown to act as a negative regulator of insulin signaling by dephosphorylating the phosphotryosine residues of insulin receptor kinase. This PTP was also reported to dephosphorylate epidermal growth factor receptor kinase, as well as JAK2 and TYK2 kinases, which implicated the role of this PTP in cell growth control, and cell response to interferon stimulation. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
Uniprot Description
PTP1B: a non-receptor phospho-tyrosine protein phosphatase which acts as a regulator of endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response. Mediates dephosphorylation and inactivation of PERK. May play an important role in CKII- and p60c-src-induced signal transduction cascades. May regulate the EFNA5-EPHA3 signaling pathway which modulates cell reorganization and cell-cell repulsion. Negatively regulates insulin signaling by dephosphorylating the phosphotyrosine residues of insulin receptor. Also reported to dephosphorylate integrin, epidermal growth factor receptor, JAK2 and TYK2, regulating cell growth control and the cellular response to interferon. May regulate the hepatocyte growth factor receptor signaling pathway through dephosphorylation of MET. PTP1B knockout mice show resistance to dietary weight gain and enhanced insulin sensitivity, suggesting a possible role in treatment of obesity as well as type 2 diabetes.
