Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 - Analysis
Research News and Information

Definition of 'Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1'

A proline-directed serine/threonine protein kinase which mediates signal transduction from the cell surface to the nucleus. Activation of the enzyme by phosphorylation leads to its translocation into the nucleus where it acts upon specific transcription factors. p40 MAPK and p41 MAPK are isoforms.

Common names: Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1; Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase 1; Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase 2; Extracellular Signal Regulated Kinase 2; MAP Kinase 2; MAPK1 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase; MAPK1 Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase; p42(Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase)

Specific attenuation of protein kinase phosphorylation in muscle with a high mitochondrial content.

21 Jun 2009 Acute contractile activity increases the activation of protein kinases involved in signal transduction. We hypothesized that the contractile activity-induced kinase phosphorylation would occur to a lesser degree in muscle with elevated mitochondrial ... Read more...


Glycogen synthase kinase 3B in bovine oocytes and granulosa cells: possible involvement in meiosis during in vitro maturation.

19 May 2009 Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) regulates cellular metabolism and cell cycle via different signalling pathways. In response to insulin and growth factors GSK3 is serine-phosphorylated and inactivated. We analysed GSK3B expression and activation in ... Read more...


Measurement of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 in an undergraduate teaching laboratory with ALPHAscreen technology.

15 Mar 2009 Teaching the practical aspects of signal transduction to large undergraduate classes can be challenging when there is only a finite time frame in which to engage in laboratory activities. This teaching resource describes the use of bead-based ... Read more...
