Cell Transformation by PTP1B Truncated Mutants Found in Human Colon and Thyroid Tumors

Abstract: Expression of wild-type protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) 1B may act either as a tumor suppressor by dysregulation of protein tyrosine kinases or a tumor promoter through Src dephosphorylation at Y527 in human breast cancer cells. To explore whether mutated PTP1B is involved in human carcinogenesis, we have sequenced PTP1B cDNAs from human tumors and found splice mutations in ~20% of colon and thyroid tumors. The PTP1BΔE6 mutant expressed in these two tumor types and another PTP1BΔE5 mutant expressed in colon… Show more

“…Liver and lung tumours in LysM-PTP1B -/- mice all stained positively for the myeloid-specific enzyme myeloperoxidase, verifying their myeloid lineage, and thereby suggesting the development of tumours to be similar to previously reported myeloproliferative disorders, with mutations in PTP1B (Figure 1h)(19, 20) .…”

“…Finally, one STAT3 wildtype patient (BALCL11) had a novel sequence variant detected in PTPN1 (Thr263Ile). PTPN1 encodes PTP1B which dephosphorylates tyrosine residues and through this mechanism is involved in regulation of intracellular signalling pathways including the JAK/STAT pathway [ 15 ]. This variant causes a change in an amino acid which is critical for protein function and is predicted to be deleterious by multiple in silico predictors [ 16 ].…”

“…Importantly, the splice variant PTP1BΔE6, which is expressed in colon and thyroid tumors, lacks phosphatase activity. However, its expression induced transformation of rat fibroblasts without Src activation, indicating that it is involved in signaling pathways independent of Src [ 76 ].…”
