Mitogen-ActivatedProtein Kinase 8, also known as MAPK8, is a part of the MAP kinase family. MAPkinases an integration point for multiple biochemical signals which take part ina various cellular processes. MAPK8 is a protein codinggene which is also involved in UV radiation induced apoptosis that is associatedto cytochrom c-mediated cell death pathway.
MAPK8 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 450 amino acids (1-427a.a) and having a molecular mass of 50.5kDa.MAPK8 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
UniProt Protein Function: | JNK1: a protein kinase of the MAPK family that is potently activated by a variety of environmental stresses, including UV and gamma radiation, ceramides, pro-inflammatory cytokines and, in some instances, by growth factors and GPCR agonists. Substrates include a number of transcription factors, primarily components of AP-1 such as c-Jun and ATF2, thus regulating AP-1 transcriptional activity. In T- cells, JNK1 and JNK2 are required for polarized differentiation of T-helper cells into Th1 cells. Binds to at least four scaffolding proteins, JIP-1, -2, -3 and -4. Activity increased in obesity. Inhibition or mouse knockout increases insulin sensitivity. Part of NFB pathway involved in inflammation and cancer, and signals downstream of Ras, though possibly as an apoptotic negative regulator of growth. Four alternatively-spliced isoforms have been described. |

NCBI Summary: | The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the MAP kinase family. MAP kinases act as an integration point for multiple biochemical signals, and are involved in a wide variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regulation and development. This kinase is activated by various cell stimuli, and targets specific transcription factors, and thus mediates immediate-early gene expression in response to cell stimuli. The activation of this kinase by tumor-necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) is found to be required for TNF-alpha induced apoptosis. This kinase is also involved in UV radiation induced apoptosis, which is thought to be related to cytochrom c-mediated cell death pathway. Studies of the mouse counterpart of this gene suggested that this kinase play a key role in T cell proliferation, apoptosis and differentiation. Five alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2013] |
