    basic FUNCTION
  • regulating the activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinases ERK1 and ERK2 by association through a kinase interaction motif
  • critical role in the outcomes of ischemic brain injury
  • may play a role in normal cognitive functioning and contribute to aspects of the neuropathology of schizophrenia
  • modulates neurotransmission by dephosphorylating regulatory tyrosine residues on its substrates

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • acts in the central nervous system to dephosphorylate a number of important proteins involved in synaptic function including ERK and NMDA receptor subunits
  • PTK2B is a substrate of striatal-enriched protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTPN5)
  • APP regulates striatal-enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase (STEP) (PTPN5)
  • inactivates extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), limiting the duration and spatial distribution of ERK signaling

    increased STEP and calpain activation contribute to altered NMDAR localization in an HD mouse model, suggesting new therapeutic targets for HD
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Step KO mice also display augmented fear conditioning as measured by an enhancement in conditioned suppression of instrumental response when a fear-associated conditioned stimulus was presented
  • significantly fewer Step knockout mice developed seizures that progressed to the stage of status epilepticus compared to WT mice
