Receptor-Like protein tyrosine phosphatases - CISMeF
Receptor-Like protein tyrosine phosphatasesMeSH Descriptor
Preferred Label : Receptor-Like protein tyrosine phosphatases;
MeSH definition : A subcategory of protein tyrosine phosphatases that are bound to the cell membrane.
They contain cytoplasmic tyrosine phosphatase domains and extracellular protein domains
that may play a role in cell-cell interactions by interacting with EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX
components. They are considered receptor-like proteins in that they appear to lack
specific ligands.;
