The set of PTP genes in the human genome
The set includes all known protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) in the published literature, verified PTPs or dual-specificity phosphatases in public data bases, and ORFs found by iterative BLAST searches with all the other sequences to find related genes and to assign alternatively spliced forms to the correct genes. To exclude synonyms, splice variants, and incorrectly assembled sequences, a data base with the amino sequences was created. To exclude pseudogenes, EST and other expression data bases were consulted, and the exon-intron structures and chromosomal locations of every gene was determined.

a the human DUSP13 gene contains two DSP genes: DUSP13A (BEDP; 3 exons), two non-coding exons, followed by DUSP13B (TMDP; 3 exons). In the mouse, the two genes are designated as separate genes.

b formerly DUPD1, but does not contain an N-terminal cyclophilin domain, as originally annotated.  The mouse ortholog also lacks cyclophilin domain. Thus, the name DUPD1 is a misnomer.
