Dual-Specificity Phosphoprotein Phosphatase

Preferred Label : Dual-Specificity Phosphoprotein Phosphatase;

NCIt synonyms : Dual Specificity Phosphoprotein Phosphatase;

NCIt definition : Dual-specificity protein phosphatases are a subclass of protein tyrosine phosphatases that are uniquely able to hydrolyse the phosphate ester bond on both a tyrosine and a threonine or serine residue on the same protein. Dual-specificity phosphatases have a central role in the complex regulation of signalling pathways that are involved in cell stress responses, proliferation and death.
