Description

STYXL1 (also known as MK-STYX) is a member of the dual-specificity phosphatase (DUSP) family but lacks catalytic phosphatase activity due to a critical active-site mutation, classifying it as a pseudophosphatase. It is involved in regulating stress granule dynamics, cell migration, and apoptosis. STYXL1 is expressed in multiple tissues and has been implicated in cancer progression and neurological disorders.

Protein Summary

STYXL1 encodes a 352-amino acid protein (MK-STYX) that contains a dual-specificity phosphatase domain but lacks catalytic activity due to substitution of the essential cysteine residue. It functions as a scaffold or regulator in signaling pathways, particularly influencing stress granule dynamics and cell motility. The protein is predominantly cytoplasmic and shuttles to stress granules under cellular stress.
