Dual specificity phosphatase 22 (DUSP22) is a gene that encodes a protein that functions in the activation of the JNK signaling pathway. Fusions, missense mutations, nonsense mutations, silent mutations, frameshift deletions, and in-frame deletions are observed in cancers such as intestinal cancer, skin cancer, and stomach cancer.

DUSP22 is altered in 0.09% of all cancers with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified, mantle cell lymphoma, anaplastic large cell lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma having the greatest prevalence of alterations [3].
