ABSTRACT
|
|
|
| |
|
Dual-specificity protein phosphatases (DUSPs), which dephosphorylate both
phosphoserine/threonine and phosphotyrosine, play vital roles in immune
activation, brain function and cell-growth signalling. A family-wide structural
library of human DUSPs was constructed based on experimental structure
determination supplemented with homology modelling. The catalytic domain of each
individual DUSP has characteristic features in the active site and in
surface-charge distribution, indicating substrate-interaction specificity. The
active-site loop-to-strand switch occurs in a subtype-specific manner,
indicating that the switch process is necessary for characteristic substrate
interactions in the corresponding DUSPs. A comprehensive analysis of the
activity-inhibition profile and active-site geometry of DUSPs revealed a novel
role of the active-pocket structure in the substrate specificity of DUSPs. A
structure-based analysis of redox responses indicated that the additional
cysteine residues are important for the protection of enzyme activity. The
family-wide structures of DUSPs form a basis for the understanding of
phosphorylation-mediated signal transduction and the development of therapeutics.
