Description

PTPRN2 encodes a member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) family, specifically a receptor-type PTP. The protein is a transmembrane autoantigen in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and is expressed primarily in neuroendocrine tissues. It is involved in insulin secretion and vesicle trafficking.
