PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • a phosphatase domain with a catalytic activity inhibited by oxidation and reversibly reactivated by reduction, suggesting the presence of an oxidation-protective intermediate other than a disulfide bond owing to the absence of a cysteine within a disulfide-bond distance from Cys338
  • HOMOLOGY
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • protein-tyrosine phosphatase family
  • non-receptor class myotubularin subfamily
  • CATEGORY receptor membrane tyrosine phosphatase
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytosolic
    intracellular,nuclear envelope
    basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved in the regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) pathway and membrane trafficking
  • should potentially represent a novel element of the Hedgehog/PI3K/VEGF signaling cascade that controls arterial specification
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • MTMR6/MTMR9 complex serves to inhibit stress-induced apoptosis and the MTMR8/MTMR9 complex inhibits autophagy
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interaction of MTMR8 with MTMR9
