SHP-2: a SH2-containing a ubiquitously expressed tyrosine-specific protein phosphatase. It participates in signaling events downstream of receptors for growth factors, cytokines, hormones, antigens and extracellular matrices in the control of cell growth, differentiation, migration, and death. Activation of SHP-2 and its association with Gab1 is critical for sustained Erk activation downstream of several growth factor receptors and cytokines.
