Homo sapiens mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2 (MAP2K2)
Synonyms:
MAPKK2; MEK2; MKK2; PRKMK2
Immunogen
A synthetic peptide corresponding to residues in N-terminus of human MEK2 was used as immunogen. The antibody does not cross-react with other MAP kinase kinase family members. Predicted to cross-react with mouse, based on sequence homology.
Buffer
50 mM Tris-Glycine (pH 7.4), 0.15 M NaCl, 40% Glycerol, 0.01% sodium azide and 0.05% BSA.
MEK1 and MEK2 (MAPK kinase 1/2, or ERK kinase 1/2) are mitogen-activated protein kinases that stimulate MAP kinase activity, playing a role in both cell growth and differentiation (1,2). MEK itself is activated via phosphorylation at serines 217/218 and 221/222 by upstream activator kinases, including c-raf, mos and MEK kinase (3,4). MEK1 and MEK2 are activated by a wide variety of growth factors and cytokines, and also by membrane depolarization and calcium influx (5).
