Abstract

Dual specificity phosphatases (DSPs) are members of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase superfamily that dephosphorylate both phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine/threonine residues in vitro. Many DSPs have been found to play important roles in various aspects of cellular function and to be involved in human disease. We have identified a gene located on human chromosome 10q22.2, which utilizes alternative open reading frames (ORFs) to encode the following two distinct DSPs: the previously described testis and skeletal muscle-specific dual specificity phosphatase (TMDP) and a novel DSP, muscle-restricted dual specificity phosphatase (MDSP). Use of alternative ORFs encoding distinct proteins from a single gene is extremely rare in eukaryotes, and in all previously reported cases the two proteins produced from one gene are unrelated. To our knowledge this is the first example of a gene from which two distinct proteins of the same family are expressed using alternative ORFs. Here we provide evidence that both MDSP and TMDP proteins are expressed in vivo and are restricted to specific tissues, skeletal muscle and testis, respectively. Most interestingly, the protein expression profiles of both MDSP and TMDP during mouse postnatal developm...Continue Reading
