Protein tyrosine phosphatase RQ (PTPRQ) was initially identified as a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase)-like protein that is upregulated in a model of renal injury. Here we present evidence that, like PTEN, the biologically important enzymatic activity of PTPRQ is as a phosphatidylinositol phosphatase (PIPase). The PIPase specificity of PTPRQ is broader than that of PTEN and depends on different amino acid residues in the catalytic domain. In vitro, the recombinant catalytic domain of PTPRQ has low PTPase activity against tyrosine-phosphorylated peptide and protein substrates but can dephosphorylate a broad range of phosphatidylinositol phosphates, including phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate and most phosphatidylinositol monophosphates and diphosphates. Phosphate can be hydrolyzed from the D3 and D5 positions in the inositol ring. PTPRQ does not have either of the basic amino acids in the catalytic domain that are important for the PIPase activity of PTEN or the sequence motifs that are characteristic of type II phosphatidylinositol 5-phosphatases. Instead, the PIPase activity depends on the WPE sequence present in the catalytic cleft of PTPRQ, and in the "inactive" D2 domains of many dual-domain PTPases, in place of the WPD motif present in standard active PTPases. Overexpression of PTPRQ in cultured cells inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis. An E2171D mutation that retains or increases PTPase activity but eliminates PIPase activity, eliminates the inhibitory effects on proliferation and apoptosis. These results indicate that PTPRQ represents a subtype of the PTPases whose biological activities result from its PIPase activity rather than its PTPase activity.
