MAPKAP Kinase 2 (Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase-activated Protein Kinase 2, MAP Kinase-activated Protein Kinase 2, MAPK-activated Protein Kinase 2, MAPKAPK2, MAPKAPK-2, MK2)

MAPKAP Kinase-2 is part of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family which includes MAP kinase kinase kinase and MAP kinase kinase. Once activated MAP Kinase-2 will in turn regulate the phosphorylation and activation of many substrates including cell surface molecules, cytoskeletal proteins, transcription factors, and protein kinases. MAPKAP Kinase-2 is also known to be a MAP kinase substrate (p38 MAPK ) in addition to phosphorylating low molecular weight heat shock proteins (Hsp27 in humans) and tyrosine hydroxylase. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not...
