Target description

Mitogen-activated protein kinase 3 (UniProt: P21708; also known as EC: 2.7.11.24, MAP kinase 3, MAPK 3, ERT2, Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1, ERK-1, Insulin-stimulated MAP2 kinase, MAP kinase isoform p44, p44-MAPK, MNK1, Microtubule-associated protein 2 kinase, p44-ERK1) is encoded by the Mapk3 (also known as Erk1, Prkm3) gene (Gene ID: 50689) in rat. ERK-1 is a serine/threonine kinase that acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. It is expressed in different tissues, mostly in intestine, placenta, and lung. Highest levels have been reported in the nervous system. The MAPK/ERK cascade mediates several diverse biological processes such as cell growth, adhesion, survival, and differentiation through the regulation of transcription, translation, and cytoskeletal rearrangements. It also plays also a role in initiation and regulation of meiosis, mitosis, and post-mitotic functions in differentiated cells by phosphorylating a few transcription factors. About 160 substrates have been described for ERKs. The protein kinase domain of ERK-1 is localized to amino acids 43-331 and the TXY motif is located in amino acids 203-205. ERK-1 is phosphorylated by MEK1 and MEK2 on threonine 203 and tyrosine 205 in response to external stimuli like insulin or nerve growth factor and both these phosphorylations are essential for its activity. Two isoforms of ERK-1 have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. This ZooMAb recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.
