This gene encodes a member of a small class of prenylated protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), which contain a PTP domain and a characteristic C-terminal prenylation motif. The encoded protein is a cell signaling molecule that plays regulatory roles in a variety of cellular processes, including cell proliferation and migration. The protein may also be involved in cancer development and metastasis. This tyrosine phosphatase is a nuclear protein, but may associate with plasma membrane by means of its prenylation motif. Pseudogenes related to this gene are located on chromosomes 1, 2, 5, 7, 11 and X. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013]
A study in humans undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass identified the PTP4A1 as an oncogene inhibited by miR-339-5p in colon cancer, as mentioned in the discussion of the research [Saddic et al. DOI:10.1152/physiolgenomics.00049.2015].
