| Function | Dual specificity protein phosphatase. Shows high activity towards MAPK1/ERK2. Also has lower activity towards MAPK14 and MAPK8. In arrested oocytes, plays a role in meiotic resumption. Promotes nuclear envelope breakdown and activation of the CDK1/Cyclin-B complex in oocytes, probably by dephosphorylating and inactivating the conventional protein kinase C (cPKC) isozyme PRKCB. May also inactivate PRKCA and/or PRKCG. Also important in oocytes for normal chromosome alignment on the metaphase plate and progression to anaphase, where it might regulate activity of the spindle-assembly checkpoint (SAC) complex. |
