Ptpn11 - protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 11 Gene

Enables cell adhesion molecule binding activity; protein tyrosine Phosphatase activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of chondrocyte differentiation; positive regulation of cytokine production; and positive regulation of ossification. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cell surface receptor signaling pathway; myeloid cell differentiation; and regulation of hormone secretion. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including mitochondrion; plasma membrane raft; and stress fiber. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Used to study several diseases, including Noonan syndrome 1; Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines; hepatocellular adenoma; intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple); and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Noonan syndrome (multiple); Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines 1; atrophic gastritis; juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia; and metachondromatosis. Orthologous to human PTPN11 (protein tyrosine Phosphatase non-receptor type 11). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
