Figure 1

(a) Structure of PTP1B labeled with significant regions (3EAX superimposed with 2QBP). The WPD (closed, colored by yellow) was shown in blue with α-3 and α-6 helices, and the α-7 helix was shown in red. The WPD (open, colored by black) was shown in purple with α-3 and α-6 helices at the inactive state. (b) PTP catalytic reaction of cleavage and hydrolysis.
