PTEN, a tumor suppressor among the most commonly mutated proteins in human cancer, is recognized to be both a protein phosphatase and a phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) 3-phosphatase. Previous work [Maehama and Dixon, J. Biol. Chem. 273 (1998) 13375-13378] has led to a consensus that inositol phosphates are not physiologically relevant substrates for PTEN. In contrast, we demonstrate that PTEN is an active inositol 1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P(5)) 3-phosphatase when expressed and purified from bacteria or HEK cells. Kinetic data indicate Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P(5) (K(m)=7.1 microM) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) (K(m)=26 microM) compete for PTEN in vivo. Transient transfection of HEK cells with PTEN decreased Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P(5) levels. We discuss the physiological significance of these studies in relation to recent work showing that dephosphorylation of Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P(5) to inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate is a cell signaling event.

This paper's DataRank is currently driven only by its base citation score. Citation network data was not refreshed for this result.
Learn more about DataRank methodology →DataRank blends this paper's own citation count with the influence of the papers that cite it. Here, roughly 100% comes from its base citations and 0% from the citation network.
Citers are pulled from OpenAlex sorted by cited_by_count:descand capped per paper, so when the cap binds we keep the highest-signal references and the score is reproducible across reruns.
