PTPN12 (Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 12) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Triple-negative breast cancer.
Dephosphorylates a range of proteins, and thereby regulates cellular signalling cascades. Dephosphorylates cellular tyrosine kinases, such as ERBB2 and PTK2B/PYK2, and thereby regulates signalling via ERBB2 and PTK2B/PYK2. Selectively dephosphorylates ERBB2 phosphorylated at 'Tyr-1112', 'Tyr-1196', and/or 'Tyr-1248'.
CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant, naming Crizotinib and Sunitinib.

No product in this corpus aims at PTPN12 yet. Inhibitors are shaped to fit the enzyme's active site so the reaction the cancer relies on stops.
Broadly expressed or essential: HPA finds the RNA at low tissue specificity; a medicine acting on the wild-type protein would expose normal tissue too. HPA PTPN12: RNA low tissue specificity; high antibody staining in 20 normal tissues; highest cancer staining testis cancer (10 of 11 high). Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Breast cancer (all types)); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5.
