Tyrosine-protein phosphatase Lar

UniProtKB accession:  P16621

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Possible cell adhesion receptor (Probable). It possesses an intrinsic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity (PTPase) (PubMed:2554325). It controls motor axon guidance (PubMed:8598047). In the developing eye, has a role in normal axonal targeting of the R7 photoreceptor, where it negatively regulates bdl (PubMed:24174674). Inhibits bdl cell adhesion activity in vitro; this effect is independent of its PTPase function (PubMed:24174674).
