Background

?

MEK1 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 MEK1 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. MEK1/2 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 MEK1/2 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.

MEK1、MEK2,也被稱為MAPK或Erk激酶，它們是雙特異性蛋白激酶，在絲裂原活化蛋白激酶級聯反應中發揮作用，控制細胞生長和分化(1-3)。MEK1、MEK2的活化是通過Raf樣分子對兩個絲氨酸（217 /221位點）的磷酸化而實現的，這兩個絲氨酸位點位于亞結構域VIII的活化環內。多種生長因子和細胞因子以及膜去極化和鈣內流都能激活MEK1/2(1-4)。組成型活化的MEK1/2能夠誘導NIH/3T3細胞的轉化和PC-12細胞的分化(4)。MEK蛋白通過將p44、p42 MAPK激酶上位于亞結構域VIII的活化環內的絲氨酸和蘇氨酸磷酸化，激活p44、 p42 MAPK激酶。
