DUSP2 (Dual specificity protein phosphatase 2) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Dephosphorylates both phosphorylated Thr and Tyr residues in MAPK1, and dephosphorylation of phosphotyrosine is slightly faster than that of phosphothreonine. Can dephosphorylate MAPK1.
CIViC holds 1 clinical evidence item and 0 assertions across 1 variant.

No product in this corpus aims at DUSP2 yet. Inhibitors are shaped to fit the enzyme's active site so the reaction the cancer relies on stops.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the role biomarker; HPA finds the RNA tissue enhanced, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA DUSP2: RNA tissue enhanced (bone marrow 122 nTPM); blood lineage group enriched (NK-cells 148 nTPM, T-cells 200 nTPM); no normal tissue stained high. Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Lymphoma); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)
