MEK Kinase-1 (phospho Thr1402) Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene is a serine/threonine kinase and is part of some signal transduction cascades, including the ERK and JNK kinase pathways as well as the NF-kappa-B pathway. The encoded protein is activated by autophosphorylation and requires magnesium as a cofactor in phosphorylating other proteins. This protein has E3 ligase activity conferred by a plant homeodomain (PHD) in its N-terminus and phospho-kinase activity conferred by a kinase domain in its C-terminus. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012],catalytic activity:ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.,cofactor:Magnesium.,enzyme regulation:Activated by autophosphorylation on Thr-1400 and Thr-1412 following oligomerization.,function:Component of a protein kinase signal transduction cascade. Activates the ERK and JNK kinase pathways by phosphorylation of MAP2K1 and MAP2K4. Activates CHUK and IKBKB, the central protein kinases of the NF-kappa-B pathway.,PTM:Autophosphorylated.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,similarity:Contains 1 RING-type zinc finger.,similarity:Contains 1 SWIM-type zinc finger.,subunit:Binds both upstream activators and downstream substrates in multimolecular complexes through its N-terminus. Oligomerizes after binding MAP4K2 or TRAF2. Interacts with AXIN1.,
