DUSP14: Lysates

Dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) constitute a large heterogeneous subgroup of the type I cysteine-basedprotein-tyrosine phosphatase superfamily. DUSPs are characterized by their ability to dephosphorylate both tyrosineand serine/threonine residues. They have been implicated as major modulators of critical signaling pathways. DUSP14contains the consensus DUSP C-terminal catalytic domain but lacks the N-terminal CH2 domain found in the MKP(mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase) class of DUSPs (see MIM 600714) (summary by Patterson et al., 2009(PubMed 19228121)).(supplied by OMIM)
