Summary
DUSP13A (dual specificity phosphatase 13A, HGNC:56772) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 10q22.2, encoding Dual specificity protein phosphatase 13A (Q6B8I1). Probable protein tyrosine phosphatase.
Members of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase superfamily cooperate with protein kinases to regulate cell proliferation and differentiation. This gene encodes a dual specificity phosphatase that acts on both phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine/threonine residues. The encoded protein is expressed in skeletal muscle.

Function. Probable protein tyrosine phosphatase. Has phosphatase activity with synthetic substrates. Has a phosphatase activity-independent regulatory role in MAP3K5/ASK1-mediated apoptosis, preventing MAP3K5/ASK1 inhibition by AKT1. Shows no phosphatase activity on MAPK1/ERK2, MAPK8/JNK, MAPK14/p38 and MAP3K5/ASK1.
Subunit / interactions. Monomer. Interacts with MAP3K5/ASK1; may compete with AKT1 preventing MAP3K5/ASK1 phosphorylation by AKT1.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Skeletal muscle specific.
Activity regulation. Inhibited by vanadate.
Miscellaneous. Produced by alternative promoter usage. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
Similarity. Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non-receptor class dual specificity subfamily.
