Vaccinia  H1‐related ( VHR ) phosphatase, also known as dual‐specificity phosphatase ( DUSP ) 3, is a small member of the DUSP (also called DSP ) family of phosphatases. VHR has a preference for phospho‐tyrosine substrates, and has important roles in cellular signaling ranging from cell‐cycle regulation and the DNA damage response to MAPK signaling, platelet activation and angiogenesis. VHR / DUSP 3 has been implicated in several human cancers, where its tumor‐suppressing and ‐promoting properties have been described. We give a detailed overview of VHR / DUSP 3 phosphatase and compare it with its most closely related phosphatases DUSP 13B, DUSP 26 and DUSP 27.
