PTPRCAP, CD45-AP, LPAP, protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type C associated protein, protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C associated protein
Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C-associated protein is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PTPRCAPgene.[5]
The protein encoded by this gene was identified as a transmembrane phosphoprotein specifically associated with tyrosine phosphatase PTPRC/CD45, a key regulator of T- and B-lymphocyte activation. The interaction with PTPRC may be required for the stable expression of this protein.[5]
