Q & A

Customer Q&As
What is PTEN?

A: PTEN gene (phosphate and tension homolog deleted on chromosome 10, PTEN), also known as MMAC1 (mutated in multiple advanced cancers1) and TEP1 (TGF-regulated and epithelial cell-enriched phosphatase).

What is the role of PTEN?

A: PTEN proteins inhibit tumour development by antagonising the activity of phosphatases such as tyrosine kinases. It was found to have a significant inhibitory effect on the activity of tyrosine kinase FAK in tumour cells. PTEN proteins play a role in cell growth signalling pathways.

What is the localization of PTEN on the chromosome?

A: PTEN is localized on chromosome 10q23.3 and consists of nine exons encoding a protein consisting of 403 amino acids with phosphodiesterase activity.

How does PTEN protein suppress tumors?

A: PTEN protein inhibits tumor development by antagonizing the activity of phosphatases such as tyrosine kinase.

What is the mechanism of action of PTEN in tumor suppression?

A: wild-type PTEN gene transfection into glioblastoma with abnormalities of this gene, the growth and invasive ability of tumor cells were significantly inhibited, and the activity of tyrosine kinase FAK of tumor cells was found to be significantly inhibited.

What is the basis for the PTEN gene being used as a phosphatase?

A: The PTEN gene regulates the synthesis of a specific protein that is contained in almost all tissues in the body.

How do PTEN genes regulate the cell division cycle?

A: This protein acts as a tumor suppressor and in turn regulates the cell division cycle by preventing cells from growing, dividing too fast or dividing uncontrollably.

Why PTEN proteins are characterized as phosphatases?

A: The phosphate group consists of three oxygen atoms and one phosphorus atom, and PTEN proteins can modify other proteins and lipids by removing the phosphate group. Based on this property, PTEN proteins are characterized as phosphatases.

Why is there an important role for PTEN proteins?

A: PTEN proteins have important roles in cell growth, apoptosis, adhesion, migration, and infiltration.

What parts of the phosphatase functional region of PTEN are included?

A: The phosphatase functional region of PTEN includes the (I/V)-H-C-X-A-G-X-X-R-(S/T)-G module, which is also present in tyrosine and dual-specificity (dual-specifity) phosphatases.
