Background: PTP sigma/PTPRS

Phosphatase Receptor-type sigma (PTPR sigma ), also known as PTP sigma, is a 200 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the class 2A (LAR) subfamily of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family (1). Human PTPR sigma cDNA encodes 1948 amino acids (aa) including a 29 aa signal sequence, a 1253 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with three C2-type Ig domains and eight Fibronectin (Fn) type III domains, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic region with two PTP domains (1, 2). Multiple differentially expressed splice variants lack sections of the Ig and/or Fn domains and/or cytoplasmic juxtamembrane sequence (1, 2). PKC activation in the cell promotes endoprotease cleavage of PTPR sigma, releasing the 140-160 kDa ECD (3). The human PTPR sigma ECD shares 93% aa sequence identity with the nearest isoform of mouse and rat PTPR sigma, 96% with bovine PTPR sigma, and 97% with porcine PTPR sigma. Activity of PTPR sigma can be inhibited by bisphosphonates (2). PTPR sigma is a receptor for several proteins, including neural chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans which inhibit nerve regeneration (4, 5). It also binds and dephosphorylates targets such as N-Cadherin, E-Cadherin, EGF R and Ret (6-9). Through these interactions PTPR sigma affects pituitary and neuroendocrine development, and axon growth and targeting (4-6). Mice deleted for PTPR sigma show pituitary, pancreatic, and gut abnormalities, mainly due to growth hormone insufficiency (9-12). They also show enhanced regeneration, but faulty targeting, of injured peripheral nerves (4-6, 13). Head and neck squamous cell cancers frequently underexpress PTPR sigma (14). Since PTPR sigma inhibits EGF R signaling pathways, its underexpression can enhance tumor cell growth (14).
