Research Backgrounds

Function:

Dual specificity protein kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. Binding of extracellular ligands such as growth factors, cytokines and hormones to their cell-surface receptors activates RAS and this initiates RAF1 activation. RAF1 then further activates the dual-specificity protein kinases MAP2K1/MEK1 and MAP2K2/MEK2. Both MAP2K1/MEK1 and MAP2K2/MEK2 function specifically in the MAPK/ERK cascade, and catalyze the concomitant phosphorylation of a threonine and a tyrosine residue in a Thr-Glu-Tyr sequence located in the extracellular signal-regulated kinases MAPK3/ERK1 and MAPK1/ERK2, leading to their activation and further transduction of the signal within the MAPK/ERK cascade. Activates BRAF in a KSR1 or KSR2-dependent manner; by binding to KSR1 or KSR2 releases the inhibitory intramolecular interaction between KSR1 or KSR2 protein kinase and N-terminal domains which promotes KSR1 or KSR2-BRAF dimerization and BRAF activation. Depending on the cellular context, this pathway mediates diverse biological functions such as cell growth, adhesion, survival and differentiation, predominantly through the regulation of transcription, metabolism and cytoskeletal rearrangements. One target of the MAPK/ERK cascade is peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARG), a nuclear receptor that promotes differentiation and apoptosis. MAP2K1/MEK1 has been shown to export PPARG from the nucleus. The MAPK/ERK cascade is also involved in the regulation of endosomal dynamics, including lysosome processing and endosome cycling through the perinuclear recycling compartment (PNRC), as well as in the fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus during mitosis.

PTMs:

Phosphorylation at Ser-218 and Ser-222 by MAP kinase kinase kinases (BRAF or MEKK1) positively regulates kinase activity. Also phosphorylated at Thr-292 by MAPK1/ERK2 and at Ser-298 by PAK. MAPK1/ERK2 phosphorylation of Thr-292 occurs in response to cellular adhesion and leads to inhibition of Ser-298 phosphorylation by PAK.

Acetylation by Yersinia yopJ prevents phosphorylation and activation, thus blocking the MAPK signaling pathway.

Application: WB    Species: Mice    Sample: lung tissues

Fig. 5. Loganin inhibits ERK and NF-κB signaling in sepsis-induced ALI mice. (A) The levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF were measured by ELISA assay. (B) The expression of Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl were detected by western blotting. (C) The expression of MEK, p-MEK (Ser217/ Ser221), ERK, p-ERK (Thr202/Tyr204), IKK-α/β, p-IKK-α/β (Ser180/Ser181), IκB-α, p-IκB-α (Ser32/36), NF-κB p65 (cytoplasm), NF-κB p65 (nucleus) were determined by western blotting. Data were shown as means ± SD. n = 6. *p < 0.05 vs. sham. #p < 0.05 vs. CLP. ERK, extra-cellular signal-regulated kinase; NF-κB, nuclear factor-kappa B; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor-α; IL-6, interleukin-6; BALF, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; CLP, cecal ligation and puncture.

Application: WB    Species: Human    Sample: HCT116 and SW480 cells

Fig. 4. Circ_0011385 silencing suppressed CRC development by interacting with miR-330-3p. (A and B) The effect of miR-330-3p inhibitor on miR-330-3p expression was determined by qRT-PCR in HCT116 and SW480 cells. (C–E) The impacts between circ_0011385 silencing and miR-330-3p inhibitor on the proliferation of HCT116 and SW480 cells were unveiled by MTT assay and cell colony formation assay. (F, I and J) Flow cytometry analysis was utilized to illustrate the effects between circ_0011385 silencing and miR-330-3p inhibitor on the apoptosis and cell cycle of HCT116 and SW480 cells. (G and H) Wound-healing and transwell assays were performed to reveal the influences between circ_0011385 absence and miR-330-3p inhibitor on the migration and invasion of HCT116 and SW480 cells, respectively. (K and L) Western blot assay was conducted to determine the influences between circ_0011385 downregulation and miR-330-3p inhibitor on the protein expression of CDK1 and Cyclin D1 in HCT116 and SW480 cells.
