MAPK6 (DKFZp686F03189, ERK3, HsT17250, PRKM6,p97MAPK, MAP kinase isoform p97, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 3, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, p97, protein kinase, mitogen-activated 5, protein kinase, mitogen-activated 6)

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family, and is most closely related to mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP kinases). MAP kinases also known as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), are activated through protein phosphorylation cascades and act as integration points for multiple biochemical signals. This kinase is localized in the nucleus, and has been reported to be activated in fibroblasts upon treatment with serum or phorbol esters. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunofluorescence. Other applications not tested. Recommended...
