Abstract
Together with protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) serve ashallmarks in cellular signal transduction by controlling the reversible phosphorylationof their substrates. The human genome is estimated to encode more than 100 PTPs, which can be divided into eleven sub-groups according to their structural and functional characteristics. All the crystal structures of catalytic domains of sub-groups have been elucidated, enablingus to understand their precise catalytic mechanism and to compare their structures across all sub-groups. In this review, I describe the structure and mechanism of catalytic domains of PTPs in the structural context.
