Pphosphatase and tensin homolog encoded by PTEN is a phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate 3-phosphatase. It contains a tensin like domain as well as a catalytic domain similar to that of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatases. Unlike most of the protein tyrosine phosphatases, t phosphatase and tensin homolog preferentially dephosphorylates phosphoinositide substrates. It negatively regulates intracellular levels of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate in cells and functions as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating AKT\/PKB signaling pathway. The use of a non-canonical (CUG) upstream initiation site produces a longer isoform that initiates translation with a leucine, and is thought to be preferentially associated with the mitochondrial inner membrane. This longer isoform may help regulate energy metabolism in the mitochondria. A pseudogene of PTEN is found on chromosome 9. Alternative splicing and the use of multiple translation start codons results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eResearch Areas: Cell Biology\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTarget Protein: PTEN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApplications: WB, IHC-p, ELISA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReactivity: Human, Mouse, Rat\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eClonality: Polyclonal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHost: Rabbit\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIsotype: IgG\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFull Product Name: PTEN Antibody\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eImmunogen: The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human AMPK alpha around the phosphorylation site of Thr172.
