※ CDC14 family introduction

    CDC14 phosphatase belongs to a family of highly conserved DUSP phosphatases. All CDC14 family members share a conserved N-terminal core domain, in which two subdomains contribute to critical function, one is involved in substrate specificity and another subdomain acts as the phosphatase catalytic domain. The C-terminal domain of CDC14 family is variable which might be involved in subcellular localization. Protein phosphatases of CDC14 family are key regulators in cell cycle and they are characterized by controlling exit from mitosis. CDC14 is well understood in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and studies show that ScCDC14 plays an important role in DNA replication, mitotic exit and cytokinesis. In Saccharomyces pombe CDC14-Like phosphatase, also known as Clp1, participates in G2−M transition and cytokinesis. In mammals, human CDC14B is important in regulating centriole duplication, cell cycle progression, mitotic exit, DNA damage and DNA repair (1).
