Abstract excerpt
SHP-2 is a ubiquitously expressed non-transmembrane tyrosine phosphatase with two SH2 domains. Multiple reverse-genetic studies have indicated that SHP-2 is a required component for organ and animal development. SHP-2 wild-type and homozygous mutant mouse fibroblast cells in which the N-terminal SH2 domain was target-deleted were used to examine the function of SHP-2 in regulating Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase...
