• Background: Microtubule associated protein kinase kinase 2 (MEK2 or MAPKK2) is a member of a family of tyrosine/threonine protein kinases that activate the ERK 1 & 2/MAPK enzymes by phosphorylating both residues within the threonine/glutamic acid/tyrosine (TEY) motif in the activation loop. MEK 1 & 2 are also activated by dual phosphorylation, which occurs on serines 218 and 222, in the activation loop of the MEKs. Threonine 394 of MEK2 is phosphorylated by ERK 2, which serves as a negative feedback loop by suppressing activation of MEK2.
