SAP-1 (PTPRH) is a receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) with a single catalytic domain in its cytoplasmic region and fibronectin type III-like domains in its extracellular region. The cellular localization and biological functions of this RPTP have remained unknown, however. We now show that mouse SAP-1 mRNA is largely restricted to the gastrointestinal tract and that SAP-1 protein localizes to the microvilli of the brush border in gastrointestinal epithelial cells. The expression of SAP-1 in mouse intestine is minimal during embryonic development but increases markedly after birth. SAP-1-deficient mice manifested no marked changes in morphology of the intestinal epithelium. In contrast, SAP-1 ablation inhibited tumorigenesis in mice with a heterozygous mutation of the adenomatous polyposis coli gene. These results thus suggest that SAP-1 is a microvillus-specific RPTP that regulates intestinal tumorigenesis.
