MAP kinase phosphatase


Function

MAP kinase phosphatase (MKP) or Dual specificity phosphatase (DUSP) are phosphatases which reverse the activation of MAP kinases by dephosphorylating tyrosine or threonine residues[1].

  • MKP-2 is essential in protection against intracellular infection[2].
  • MKP-3 is localized in the nucleus and dephosphorylates phosphoTyr in p38a[3].
  • MKP-4 is localized in the nucleus and cytosole
  • MKP-5 is localized in the nucleus and cytosole and is involved in pressure overload-induced cardiac fibrosis[4].
  • MKP-6, MKP-7 are localized in the nucleus

Relevance

DUSP is implicated in the initiation and development of cancer[5].
