Rabbit polyclonal to MAPKAP Kinase 2MAP kinase-activated protein kinase-2 (MAPKAPK-2), also known as p45 hsp27 kinase, is a 45-54 kDa serine-threonine protein kinase that contains a proline rich sequence and two putative SH3-binding sites. MAPKAPK-2 is activated in response to stress, IL-1 and TNF, possibly catalyzed by p38/Hog-dependent phosphorylation. One of the major substrates of MAPKAPK-2 is hsp27, which stimulates actin polymerization in order to facilitate recovery from destruction of cytoskeleton during cellular stresses. |
