Also known as MKP-3PYST1
Summary
DUSP6 (dual specificity phosphatase 6, HGNC:3072) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12q21.33, encoding Dual specificity protein phosphatase 6 (Q16828). Dual specificity protein phosphatase, which mediates dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases. In precision oncology, DUSP6 EXPRESSION confers sensitivity to Trametinib in Cancer (CIViC Level D).
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 are 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 inactivates ERK2, is expressed in a variety of tissues with the highest levels in heart and pancreas, and unlike most other members of this family, is localized in the cytoplasm. Mutations in this gene have been associated with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.

Function. Dual specificity protein phosphatase, which mediates dephosphorylation and inactivation of MAP kinases. Has a specificity for the ERK family. Plays an important role in alleviating chronic postoperative pain. Necessary for the normal dephosphorylation of the long-lasting phosphorylated forms of spinal MAPK1/3 and MAP kinase p38 induced by peripheral surgery, which drives the resolution of acute postoperative allodynia. Also important for dephosphorylation of MAPK1/3 in local wound tissue, which further contributes to resolution of acute pain. Promotes cell differentiation by regulating MAPK1/MAPK3 activity and regulating the expression of AP1 transcription factors.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with MAPK1/ERK2.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in keratinocytes (at protein level).
Post-translational modifications. Ubiquitinated by the SCF(FBXO31) complex, leading to its proteasomal degradation.
Disease relevance. Hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 19 with or without anosmia (HH19) [MIM:615269] A disorder characterized by absent or incomplete sexual maturation by the age of 18 years, in conjunction with low levels of circulating gonadotropins and testosterone and no other abnormalities of the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. In some cases, it is associated with non-reproductive phenotypes, such as anosmia, cleft palate, and sensorineural hearing loss. Anosmia or hyposmia is related to the absence or hypoplasia of the olfactory bulbs and tracts. Hypogonadism is due to deficiency in gonadotropin-releasing hormone and probably results from a failure of embryonic migration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone-synthesizing neurons. In the presence of anosmia, idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism is referred to as Kallmann syndrome, whereas in the presence of a normal sense of smell, it has been termed normosmic idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (nIHH). The disease is caused by variants affecting distinct genetic loci, including the gene represented in this entry. Some patients carrying mutations in DUSP6 also have a heterozygous mutation in another HH-associated gene including FGFR1 and SPRY4.
Similarity. Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non-receptor class dual specificity subfamily.
