PTPRQ( Human )
protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type Q
Alias
DFNB84|DFNB84A|PTPGMC1|R-PTP-Q
This locus encodes a member of the type III receptor-like protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. The encoded protein catalyzes the dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine and phosphatidylinositol and plays roles in cellular proliferation and differentiation. Mutations at this locus have been linked to autosomal recessive deafness. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014].
