Protein : MEK2 (MAP2K2)

Name MEK2 (MAP2K2)
Description MAPK/Erk Kinase 2; Mitogen-Activated PRotein Kinase Kinase 2; Protein Kinase, Mitogen-activated, Kinase 2. Mek2 is downstream of Raf and upon activation can activate extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs). OMIM: 601263.
Owner Public
URN urn:agi-llid:5605
Connectivity 43
Notes The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax.
