Description: Recombinant full length human DUSP22 was expressed in E.coli cells using a N-terminal GST tag.

Storage, Stability, and Shipping: Store product at –70^oC. For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.

Applications: Phosphatase Assay, Western Blot

Molecular Weight: ~43 kDa

Gene Aliases: VHX, JKAP, JSP1, MKPX

Scientific Background: Dual specificity phosphatases (DUSP) family, which can dephosphorylate both phosphoserine/threonine and phosphotyrosine residues, comprise of two subgroups: "typical" DUSP (include 11 MKPs that dephosphorylate the mitogen-activated protein kinases Erk, Jnk, and p38 at their dually phosphorylated TXY activation loop motif) and "atypical" DUSP (include 8 enzymes that lack specific MAP kinase-targeting motifs and tend to be much smaller proteins, which are less than 250 amino acid residues) (1). DUSP22, also called JKAP, JSP1 and MKPX plays a role in various inflammatory and proliferative disorders associated with dysfunctional Jnk signaling (2).
