## Abstract The abnormal sodium content of many cataracts suggests Na,KβATPase is vital for maintenance of eye lens transparency. Since tyrosine phosphorylation is considered a possible regulatory mechanism for Na,KβATPase, experiments were conducted to test the influence of protein tyrosine phosph
## Abstract __SELEX was used to create an RNA aptamer targeted to protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B), an enzyme implicated in type 2 diabetes, breast cancer and obesity. We found an aptamer that strongly inhibits PTP1B in vitro with a__ K__~i~ of less than 600 pM. This slowβbinding, highβaffin
## Abstract Diabetes mellitus is a systemic disease responsible for morbidity in the western world and is gradually becoming prevalent in developing countries too. The prevalence of diabetes is rapidly increasing in industrialized countries and type 2 diabetes accounts for 90% of the disease. Insul
Protein tyrosine phosphatases are a class of enzymes that function to modulate tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins and play an essential role in regulating cell function. PTP1B has been implicated in the negative regulation of the insulin signaling pathway by dephosphorylating the activate
