Activating Mutations in Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Ptpn11 (Shp2) Enhance Reactive Oxygen Species Production That Contributes to Myeloproliferative Disorder

Gain of function (GOF) mutations in protein tyrosine phosphatase Ptpn11 have been identified in childhood leukemias, and these mutations are sufficient to drive the development of myeloproliferative disorder and malignant leukemias in mice. However, the molecular mechanisms by which Ptpn11 mutations...
