Tyrosine-Protein Phosphatase Non-Receptor Type 6

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein|Enzyme

**Definition:** Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 6 (595 aa, ~66 kDa) is encoded by the human PTPN6 gene. This protein plays a role in both protein dephosphorylation and the regulation of receptor-mediated signaling pathways.
