Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

PTPRG is a receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase that functions broadly as a negative regulator of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling and, in most contexts, as a tumor suppressor (PMID:20651337, PMID:8453613). Its catalytic activity resides in a phosphatase domain whose C1060 active-site cysteine is essential, and it auto-dephosphorylates at Y1307 within its D2 domain (PMID:23029056). At the plasma membrane and within cholesterol-rich lipid domains it directly dephosphorylates activated receptor tyrosine kinases, including FGFR1 in osteosarcoma (PMID:29371290), EGFR at Y1068/Y1086 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (PMID:25970784), and AXL when AXL is recruited to lipid domains through the GPI-anchored partner OPCML (PMID:29907679); through these substrates it suppresses PI3K/Akt and RAS/ERK signaling, restraining proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, and invasion (PMID:29907679, PMID:25970784, PMID:20651337, PMID:24496747). PTPRG also dampens BCR-ABL1 signaling and modulates nilotinib response in CML (PMID:29507701). Its extracellular carbonic anhydrase-like domain mediates direct, structurally defined binding to contactins CNTN3-6 via their N-terminal Ig repeats (PMID:20133774, PMID:23519440), and in endothelial cells of resistance arteries the protein acts as an HCO3−-sensor that couples bicarbonate sensing to endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation, cerebral perfusion, and blood pressure control (PMID:32955439). PTPRG expression is silenced or attenuated through promoter and intronic CpG methylation and by miR-19b targeting of its 3'-UTR (PMID:24496747, PMID:27602768, PMID:21150880). In contrast to its solid-tumor suppressor role, PTPRG supports survival of malignant plasma cells in multiple myeloma (PMID:41050668).

2010 Crystal structures of the carbonic anhydrase-like domains of PTPRG and PTPRZ revealed that PTPRG directly interacts with the second and third immunoglobulin repeats of contactins CNTN3, CNTN4, CNTN5, and CNTN6 (but not CNTN1, which is specific to PTPRZ). Crystal structure of mouse CNTN4 N-terminal Ig repeats in complex with the carbonic anhydrase-like domain of mouse PTPRG showed CNTN4 adopts a horseshoe-like conformation and contacts a discrete beta-hairpin loop region of PTPRG.

2018 PTPRG interacts with and colocalizes with FGFR1 at the plasma membrane in osteosarcoma cells, and directly dephosphorylates activated FGFR1.

2018 PTPRG, restricted to cholesterol-rich lipid domains, dephosphorylates the RTK AXL when AXL is recruited to lipid domains through its interaction with the GPI-anchored tumour suppressor OPCML (which binds activated AXL). This OPCML-PTPRG cooperation prevents AXL-mediated transactivation of cMET and EGFR, inhibits sustained phospho-ERK signalling, reduces EMT transcription factor Slug induction, and suppresses cell migration and invasion in ovarian cancer.

2020 RPTPγ (encoded by PTPRG) functions as an HCO3−-sensor in endothelial cells of resistance arteries. Its presence enhances endothelial intracellular Ca2+ responses and facilitates endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation only when CO2/HCO3− is present. RPTPγ limits increases in cerebral perfusion during neuronal activity, amplifies decreases during hyperventilation, and augments hyperventilation-induced blood pressure elevations, without affecting resting blood pressure.
