UniProt functional annotation for A2A8L5

UniProt code: A2A8L5.

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Mus; Mus.
 
Function: Possible cell adhesion receptor. It possesses an intrinsic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity (PTPase) and dephosphorylates EPHA2 regulating its activity (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=H2O + O-phospho-L-tyrosyl-[protein] = L-tyrosyl-[protein] + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10684, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10136, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10137, ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:46858, ChEBI:CHEBI:82620; EC=3.1.3.48; Evidence={ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU10044};
Subunit: Interacts with GRIP1. Interacts with PPFIA1, PPFIA2 and PPFIA3. Interacts with PTPRF. {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in the cell of the T lineage but not in cells of any other hemopoietic lineage. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11241288}.
Domain: The first PTPase domain has enzymatic activity, while the second one seems to affect the substrate specificity of the first one. {ECO:0000250}.
Similarity: Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Receptor class 2A subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
