We have previously shown that the T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TC-PTP) dephosphorylates the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
-receptor. Here we show that the increased PDGF
-receptor phosphorylation in TC-PTP ko mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) occurs primarily on the cell surface. The increased phosphorylation is accompanied by a TC-PTP-dependent, monensin-sensitive delay in clearance of cell surface PDGF
-receptors and delayed receptor degradation, suggesting PDGF
-receptor recycling. Recycled receptors could also be directly detected on the cell surface of TC-PTP ko MEFs. The effect of TC-PTP depletion was specific for the PDGF
-receptor, since PDGF
-receptor homodimers were cleared from the cell surface at the same rate in TC-PTP ko MEFs as in wt MEFs. Interestingly, PDGF 
-receptor heterodimers were recycling. Analysis by confocal microscopy revealed that, in TC-PTP ko MEFs, activated PDGF
-receptors colocalized with Rab4a, a marker for rapid recycling. In accordance with this, transient expression of a dominant negative Rab4a construct increased the rate of clearance of cell surface receptors on TC-PTP ko MEFs. Thus, loss of TC-PTP specifically redirects the PDGF
-receptor toward rapid recycling, which is the first evidence of differential trafficking of PDGF receptor family members.
