RSK1 (also called MAPK Activated Protein Kinase-1a; MAPKAP-K1a) is a member of the broadly expressed p90 Ribosomal S6 Kinase (RSK) family of serine/threonine kinases that also includes RSK2 (MAPKAP-K1b), RSK3 (MAPKAP-K1c), and RSK4.
RSK proteins are substrates for and downstream transducers of MAPK signaling proteins, primarily ERK1&2.
RSK proteins possess two separate kinase domains, the C-terminal kinase domain and the N-terminal kinase domain, separated by a linker region containing a hydrophobic motif.
Activation of RSK1 is a multi-step process involving phosphorylation of multiple residues within the three domains, changes in RSK protein localization, and modulation of RSK complex formation with ERK1&2 and/or 14-3-3 beta proteins.
RSK is activated by many stimuli including growth factors, phorbol esters, cAMP, heat shock, and irradiation.
ERK 1&2 phosphorylates threonine 573 of the C-terminal kinase domain, thereby stimulating this kinase activity and leading to phosphorylation of serine 380 within the linker region.
Phosphoserine 380 is part of a docking site for PDK1, a constitutively active cytoplasmic kinase that phosphorylates serine 221 and thereby activates the N-terminal kinase domain to phosphorylate various substrates that include transporters, transcription factors, and transcription co-activators.
