Subunit Structure: Monomer. Interacts with the C-terminal regions of EIF4G1 and EIF4G2; this interaction is promoted when MAPK pathways are repressed but repressed upon ERK proteins activation. Also binds to dephosphorylated MAPK3/ERK1 and MAPK1/ERK2. Isoform 1 interaction with phosphorylated MAPK3/ERK1 and MAPK1/ERK2 protects it from dephosphorylation and inactivation. Isoform 2 interacts with ESR2 and EIF4E in the nucleus.
Post-translational Modifications: Dual phosphorylation of Thr-244 and Thr-249 activates the kinase. Phosphorylation of Thr-379 activates the kinase. Phosphorylated upon arsenic trioxide As2O3 treatment. Phosphorylated by MAPK1/ERK2, MAPK11 and MAPK14. Dephosphorylated by PP2A.
Similarity: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CAMK Ser/Thr protein kinase family.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Predicted: 52 kDa
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinases (CAMK) Ser/Thr protein kinase family, which belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. This protein contains conserved DLG (asp-leu-gly) and ENIL (glu-asn-ile-leu) motifs, and an N-terminal polybasic region which binds importin A and the translation factor scaffold protein eukaryotic initiation factor 4G (eIF4G). This protein is one of the downstream kinases activated by mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. It phosphorylates the eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E), thus playing important roles in the initiation of mRNA translation, oncogenic transformation and malignant cell proliferation. In addition to eIF4E, this protein also interacts with von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor (VHL), ring-box 1 (Rbx1) and Cullin2 (Cul2), which are all components of the CBC(VHL) ubiquitin ligase E3 complex. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but the full-length nature and biological activity of only two variants are determined. These two variants encode distinct isoforms which differ in activity and regulation, and in subcellular localization. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
Uniprot Description
Serine/threonine-protein kinase that phosphorylates SFPQ/PSF, HNRNPA1 and EIF4E. May play a role in the response to environmental stress and cytokines. Appears to regulate translation by phosphorylating EIF4E, thus increasing the affinity of this protein for the 7-methylguanosine-containing mRNA cap. Required for mediating PP2A-inhibition-induced EIF4E phosphorylation. Triggers EIF4E shuttling from cytoplasm to nucleus. Isoform 1 displays a high basal kinase activity, but isoform 2 exhibits a very low kinase activity. Acts as a mediator of the suppressive effects of IFNgamma on hematopoiesis. Negative regulator for signals that control generation of arsenic trioxide As2O3-dependent apoptosis and anti-leukemic responses. Involved in anti-apoptotic signaling in response to serum withdrawal.

Product Notes
The MKNK2 mknk2 (Catalog #AAA9606248) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The MKNK2 Antibody reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's MKNK2 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB), ELISA (EIA). WB: 1:500-1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MKNK2 mknk2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MKNK2, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
