Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) constitute a diverse family of in
tracellular and transmembrane proteins. Expression data and recent gen
etic analyses indicate that many PTPs play important roles in differen
t aspects of nervous system development. Although PTP mechanisms are s
till poorly understood, current data suggest considerable complexity i
n these signaling pathways. (C) Current Biology Ltd ISSN 0955-0674.
