DUSP16 Gene Information

HGNC symbol
DUSP16 
Aliases
KIAA1700; MKP-7; MKP7 
Common name
dual specificity phosphatase 16 
Entrez Id
80824
Description
This gene encodes a mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase that is a member of the dual specificity protein phosphatase subfamily. These phosphatases inactivate their target kinases by dephosphorylating both the phosphoserine/threonine and phosphotyrosine residues. The encoded protein specifically regulates the c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathways.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010].
