DUSP16 (Dual specificity protein phosphatase 16) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Colorectal cancer.
Dual specificity protein phosphatase involved in the inactivation of MAP kinases. Dephosphorylates MAPK10 bound to ARRB2.
IntOGen calls it a driver in 2 cohorts (0 activating, 2 loss-of-function), covering Colorectal Adenocarcinoma.
In plain words · DUSP16 (Dual specificity protein phosphatase 16) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Colorectal cancer.

No product in this corpus aims at DUSP16 yet. Because the protein is lost rather than overactive, drugs either restore its function or exploit the weakness its loss leaves (synthetic lethality).
