Abstract excerpt
The recent identification of many different protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) has led to the recognition that these enzymes match protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) in importance for intracellular signalling.

These estimates are imprecise due to the large number of sequence database entries that represent...
