Vaccinia Virus VH1-related phosphatase (VHR), also known as dual-specificity phosphatase 3 (DUSP3), dephosphorylates a variety of substrates at serine, threonine, and tyrosine residues. VHR has been shown to dephosphorylate the mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK1, ERK2, and JNK, but not p38. Phosphorylation of VHR at Y138 by ZAP70 enhances the inhibition of ERK2, suggesting a role for VHR in modulating T-cell receptor signaling.
