    basic FUNCTION
  • negative regulator of mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase family
  • playing a role necessary and sufficient for TP53 -induced apoptosis and growth suppression
  • inducible, nuclear-specific, dual-specificity mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphatase that is a transcription target of TP53 in signaling apoptosis and growth suppression
  • involved in ERK2 dephosphorylation, requiring association of its N-terminal domain with ERK2 that results in catalytic activation of the phosphatase
  • having a crucial role in E2F1-directed apoptosis
  • involved in stimulus-specific, and phosphatase-specific mechanism of MAPK1 regulation in the nucleus
  • with DUSP1, and DUSP10 are crucial players in the regulation of immune responses, but other members of the family, like the ERK-specific DUSP6, play a major role in development
