Signaling<br />
MAP Kinase Signaling<br />
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are a highly conserved family of serine/threonine protein<br />
kinases involved in a variety of fundamental cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation,<br />
motility, stress response, apoptosis, and survival. Conventional MAPKs include the extracellular<br />
signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (Erk1/2 or p44/42), the c-Jun N-terminal kinases 1-3 (JNK1-3)/<br />
stress activated protein kinases (SAPK1A, 1B, 1C), the p38 isoforms (p38α, β, γ, and δ), and Erk5. The<br />
lesser-studied, atypical MAPKs include Nemo-like kinase (NLK), Erk3/4, and Erk7/8.<br />

Signaling via the conventional MAPKs follows a classical<br />
three-tiered kinase cascade: MAPKKK MAPKK MAPK.<br />
CONVENTIONAL MAPKS<br />
ATYPICAL MAPKS<br />
A broad range of extracellular stimuli including mitogens, cytokines, growth factors, and environmental<br />
stressors stimulate the activation of one or more MAPKK kinases (MAPKKKs) via receptor-dependent<br />
and -independent mechanisms. MAPKKKs then phosphorylate and activate a downstream MAPK<br />
kinase (MAPKK), which in turn phosphorylates and activates MAPKs. Activation of MAPKs leads to the<br />
phosphorylation and activation of specific MAPK-activated protein kinases (MAPKAPKs), such as members<br />
of the RSK, MSK, or MNK family, and MK2/3/5. These MAPKAPKs function to amplify the signal<br />
and mediate the broad range of biological processes regulated by the different MAPKs. While most<br />
MAPKKK, MAPKK, and MAPKs display a strong preference for one set of substrates, there is significant<br />
cross-talk in a stimulus- and cell-type–dependent manner.<br />
Activation of MAPK signaling by TPA results in<br />
phosphorylation of c-Fos, a nuclear oncogene<br />
that dimerizes with c-Jun to form the AP-1<br />
transcription factor.<br />
