| Abstract: | Hematopoietic cell phosphatase (Hcph) was identified by amplification of conserved protein tyrosine phosphatase sequences from a myeloid cell line and is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells. Hcph is unique in containing two, tandemly repeated, src-homology 2 domains in the amino terminal region of the phosphatase. Using a genomic probe in interspecific backcross analysis, the murine Hcph gene maps to mouse Chromosome 6 and is tightly linked to the Tnfr-2 and Ly-4 genes. |
