Enables several functions, including phosphotyrosine residue binding activity; protein domain specific binding activity; and protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including epididymis development; negative regulation of cytokine production; and negative regulation of inflammatory response to wounding. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hemopoiesis; negative regulation of protein phosphorylation; and regulation of lymphocyte activation. Located in cell-cell junction. Part of alpha-beta T cell receptor complex. Is active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; liver; retina; and thymus primordium.
