About DUSP9

Cytogenetic location: Xq28 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): X:153,642,441-153,651,326 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 106 orthologues and 30 paralogues. Biased expression in placenta (RPKM 41.7) and kidney (RPKM 21.4).

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene 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. They negatively regulate members of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase superfamily (MAPK/ERK, SAPK/JNK, p38), which is associated with cellular proliferation and differentiation. Different members of the family of dual specificity phosphatases show distinct substrate specificities for various MAP kinases, different tissue distribution and subcellular localization, and different modes of inducibility of their expression by extracellular stimuli. This gene product shows selectivity for members of the ERK family of MAP kinases and is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus. Aberrant expression of this gene is associated with type 2 diabetes and Cancer progression in several cell types. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
