Description

Description: This gene was identified as a tumor suppressor that is mutated in a large number of cancers at high frequency. The protein encoded this gene is a phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase. It contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, this protein preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates. It negatively regulates intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells and functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating AKT/PKB signaling pathway.

Short Description

PTEN antibody detects phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), a known tumor suppressor protein with a predicted molecular weight of ~47 kDa. PTEN is a key phosphatase involved in the AKT pathway, playing important roles in cell growth, survival, and migration. Loss of PTEN function is found in various diseases, including cancers.
