MEK1 and MEK2 are integral components of the MAP kinase cascade that regulates cell growth and differentiation and this pathway also plays a key role in synaptic plasticity in brain.
Activation of MEK1/2 occurs via phosphorylation of two serine residues (Ser218 and Ser222).
Activated MEK1/2 then acts as a dual specificity kinase phosphorylating both a threonine and a tyrosine residue on ERK.
This phosphorylation of ERK by MEK1/2 is a critical step in the MAP kinase cascade.
