Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
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 regu

Melanoma Melanoma We verified that genetic inactivation of DUSP4 and PPP2R2A reduces the proliferation of melanoma cells. DUSP4 encodes an inhibitor of ERK, suggesting that further activation of MAPK signaling activity through its loss is selectively deleterious to melanom, Together, these data suggest that genetic suppression of DUSP4/6 induces growth arrest in NRAS mutant cutaneous melanoma cells through their phosphatase activity. 32767816, 34857952 CBGDA
