Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) negatively regulates the effect of protein tyrosine kinases and is implicated in the regulation of a variety of biological phenomena such as cell activation, differentiation and neoplastic transformation. To gain insight into the role of PTPs, we cloned the human receptor‐type FTP gene and assigned the chromosome harboring the gene for HPTPδ by using DNAs from human‐mouse hybrid cell lines and by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The results clearly demonstrated that HPTPδ gene maps to human chromosome 9p24.
