Dual-specificity kinase
Definition:

Dual-specificity kinase is the kinase family that phosphorylates both Ser/Thr and Tyr residues on target proteins, releasing ADP. The canonical members are the MAPKKs that activate MAPKs on their TXY motif, and they are central to eukaryotic signaling. Expected in Eukaryota, Bacteria and Archaea.
