Related Product Information for anti-MEK3 antibody

This gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is activated by mitogenic and environmental stress, and participates in the MAP kinase-mediated signaling cascade. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK14/p38-MAPK. This kinase can be activated by insulin, and is necessary for the expression of glucose transporter. Expression of RAS oncogene is found to result in the accumulation of the active form of this kinase, which thus leads to the constitutive activation of MAPK14, and confers oncogenic transformation of primary cells. The inhibition of this kinase is involved in the pathogenesis of Yersina pseudotuberculosis. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode distinct isoforms have been reported for this gene

Uniprot Description

MKK3: a dual-specificity protein kinase of the STE7 family. Activates p38 MAP kinase by phosphorylating a Thr and a Tyr residue in the activation loop. Is activated by cytokines and environmental stress in vivo. A deletion and two point mutants found in colon cancer cell lines. Three splice-variant isoforms have been described.
