Facts about Receptor-type tyrosine-protein phosphatase zeta.
May play a role in protecting oligondendrocytes against apoptosis. May play a role in the establishment of contextual memory, probably through the dephosphorylation of proteins which are part of important signaling cascades (By similarity).

Specifically expressed in the central nervous system, where it is localized in the Purkinje cell layer of the cerebellum, the dentate gyrus, and the subependymal layer of the anterior horn of the lateral ventricle. Developmentally regulated in the brain.
[Isoform 1]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Secreted. A secreted form is apparently generated by shedding of the extracellular domain.; [Isoform 2]: Secreted.
