MAP2K1 and MEK2, also called MAPK or Erk kinases, are dual-specificity protein kinases that function in a mitogen activated protein kinase cascade controlling cell growth and differentiation (1-3).
Activation of MAP2K1 and MEK2 occurs through phosphorylation of two serine residues at positions 217 and 221, located in the activation loop of subdomain VIII, by Raf-like molecules.
MAP2K1/2 is activated by a wide variety of growth factors and cytokines and also by membrane depolarization and calcium influx (1-4).
Constitutively active forms of MAP2K1/2 are sufficient for the transformation of NIH/3T3 cells or the differentiation of PC-12 cells (4).
MEK activates p44 and p42 MAP kinase by phosphorylating both threonine and tyrosine residues at sites located within the activation loop of kinase subdomain VIII.
