Biochem/physiol Actions

p38 MAP kinase (RK, SAPK2a, Mxi2, CSBP) is an enzyme that belongs to the MAP kinase family of proteins which are activated by dual phosphorylation on tyrosine and serine residues. p38 MAP kinase is homologous to the Saccharomyces cerevisiae HOG1 protein and represents a signal transduction pathway distinct from the ERK1/ERK2 pathway and JNK pathways. Activation of p38 MAP kinase occurs in response to heat shock, osmotic stress, UV irradiation and exposure to sodium arsenite or lipopolysaccharides. p38 MAP kinase is activated by the dual specificity kinases, i.e. MKK3, MKK4 or MKK6, and subsequently phosphorylates downstream substrates such as the transcription factor ATF2 and the protein kinases MAPKAP kinase-2 and MAPKAP kinase-3.

Mammalian mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases include extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 subgroups. These MAP kinase isoforms are activated by dual phosphorylation on threonine and tyrosine. Two human MAP kinase kinases (MKK3 and MKK4) were

Protein kinases activated by dual phosphorylation on Tyr and Thr (MAP kinases) can be grouped into two major classes: ERK and JNK. The ERK group regulates multiple targets in response to growth factors via a Ras-dependent mechanism. In contrast, JNK

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases require dual phosphorylation on threonine and tyrosine residues in order to gain enzymatic activity. This activation is carried out by a family of enzymes known as MAP kinase kinases (MKKs or MEKs). It appears that there

Stress-activated protein kinase-3 (SAPK3), a recently described MAP kinase family member with a wide-spread tissue distribution, was transfected into several mammalian cell lines and shown to be activated in response to cellular stresses, interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumour necrosis factor (TNF)

MAPK-activated protein kinase-2 (MAPKAP kinase-2) is activated in vitro by the p42 and p44 isoforms of MAPK (p42/p44MAPK). In several cell lines, however, MAPKAP kinase-2 is activated by sodium arsenite, heat shock, or osmotic stress and not by agonists that
