Enables preribosome binding activity and protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including ascospore wall assembly; positive regulation of autophagosome assembly; and ribosome biogenesis. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to human DUSP12 (dual specificity phosphatase 12).
SGD Description
Dual specificity protein phosphatase; regulates growth, sporulation, and glycogen accumulation in a cAMP-dependent protein kinase cascade dependent manner; mutants are defective in 60S ribosome assembly; positively regulates pre-autophagosomal structure (PAS) formation upon nitrogen starvation or rapamycin treatment
