Background: |
PTPMT1 (protein tyrosine phosphatase mitochondrial 1), also known as MOSP or PLIP (phosphoinositide lipid phosphatase) and previously known as DUSP23, is a widely expressed PTP membrane protein with high expression levels in pancreatic cells. PTPMT1 exclusively localizes to the matrix face of the inner membrane of the mitochondrion. It is responsible for dephosphorylating mitochondrial proteins and therefore plays a significant role in the production of ATP and secretion of insulin. |
