title: Assignment of the human protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor-type, zeta (PTPRZ) gene to chromosome band 7q31.3.
abstract: Human protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor-type, zeta (PTPRZ; also denoted HPTP zeta or RPTP beta) has a large extracellular region with the N-terminal carbonic anhydrase-like domain and a cytoplasmic region with two tandemly located protein tyrosine phosphatase domains. One of the characteristics of PTPRZ is its preferential expression in the central nervous system. We localized the human PTPRZ gene to chromosome band 7q31.3 by somatic cell hybrid mapping and fluorescence in situ hybridization.
