The expression of DUSP1 gene is induced in human skin fibroblasts by oxidative/heat stress and growth factors. It specifies a protein with structural features similar to members of the non-receptor-type protein-tyrosine phosphatase family, and which has significant amino-acid sequence similarity to a Tyr/Ser-protein phosphatase encoded by the late gene H1 of vaccinia virus. Dual specificity phosphatase that dephosphorylates MAP kinase MAPK1/ERK2 on both Thr-183 and Tyr-185, regulating its activity during the meiotic cell cycle.
