dual specificity protein phosphatase CDC14A; CDC14 cell division cycle 14 homolog A (CDC14A)

Function: - dual-specificity phosphatase - required for centrosome separation & productive cytokinesis during cell division - may dephosphorylate the cyclosome subunit FZR1/CDH1, thus promoting cyclosome-FZR1 dependent degradation of mitotic cyclins & subsequent exit from mitosis - interacts with KIF20A, which is required to localize CDC14 to the midzone of the mitotic spindle Structure: - composed of two structurally equivalent A & B domains that adopt a dual specificity protein phosphatase (DSP) fold - belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family non-receptor class CDC14 subfamily Compartment: - nucleus, cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome - cytoskeleton, spindle - centrosomal during interphase - released into the cytoplasm at the onset of mitosis - subsequently localizes to the midzone of the mitotic spindle Alternative splicing: named isoforms=4
