ID:DUS18_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Dual specificity protein phosphatase 18; EC=3.1.3.16; EC=3.1.3.48; AltName: Full=Low molecular weight dual specificity phosphatase 20; Short=LMW-DSP20; FUNCTION: Can dephosphorylate single and diphosphorylated synthetic MAPK peptides, with preference for the phosphotyrosine and diphosphorylated forms over phosphothreonine. In vitro, dephosphorylates p-nitrophenyl phosphate (pNPP). CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Protein tyrosine phosphate + H(2)O = protein tyrosine + phosphate. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: A phosphoprotein + H(2)O = a protein + phosphate. ENZYME REGULATION: Activated by manganese ions, inhibited by iodoaretic acid. BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES: pH dependence: Optimum pH is 6.0; Temperature dependence: Optimum temperature is 55 degrees Celsius; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Widely expressed with highest levels in liver, brain, ovary and testis. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non-receptor class dual specificity subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 tyrosine-protein phosphatase domain.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
