Description: Homo sapiens cell division cycle 14A (CDC14A), transcript variant 1, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_003672): The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the dual specificity protein tyrosine phosphatase family. It is highly similar to Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cdc14, a protein tyrosine phosphatase involved in the exit of cell mitosis and initiation of DNA replication, suggesting a role in cell cycle control. This protein has been shown to interact with, and dephosphorylate tumor suppressor protein p53, and is thought to regulate the function of p53. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

ID:CC14A_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Dual specificity protein phosphatase CDC14A; EC=3.1.3.16; EC=3.1.3.48; AltName: Full=CDC14 cell division cycle 14 homolog A; FUNCTION: Dual-specificity phosphatase. Required for centrosome separation and productive cytokinesis during cell division. May dephosphorylate the APC subunit FZR1/CDH1, thereby promoting APC- FZR1 dependent degradation of mitotic cyclins and subsequent exit from mitosis. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Protein tyrosine phosphate + H(2)O = protein tyrosine + phosphate. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: A phosphoprotein + H(2)O = a protein + phosphate. SUBUNIT: Interacts with KIF20A, which is required to localize CDC14 to the midzone of the mitotic spindle. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle. Note=Centrosomal during interphase, released into the cytoplasm at the onset of mitosis. Subsequently localizes to the midzone of the mitotic spindle. DOMAIN: Composed of two structurally equivalent A and B domains that adopt a dual specificity protein phosphatase (DSP) fold (By similarity). SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein-tyrosine phosphatase family. Non-receptor class CDC14 subfamily. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAB88277.1; Type=Frameshift; Positions=6; WEB RESOURCE: Name=NIEHS-SNPs; URL="http://egp.gs.washington.edu/data/cdc14a/";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
