MAP kinase phosphatase
Dual-specificity phosphatases have been recognized as key players for inactivating different map kinase isoforms; this class of phosphatases has been designated MAP Kinase phosphatases[1]
On the basis of structures predicted from genomic sequence, the MKP's can readily be divided into subgroups (Table 1).
