| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in brain and kidney. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Autophosphorylated on Ser/Thr. Phosphorylated in cytosol under basal conditions and dephosphorylated when membrane-associated. The activity of MAP3K12 can be regulated through its proteasomal degradation. APOE, through a receptor-mediated mechanism, activates MAP3K12 by preventing its proteasomal degradation. |
| Function | Part of a non-canonical MAPK signaling pathway. Activated by APOE, enhances the AP-1-mediated transcription of APP, via a MAP kinase signal transduction pathway composed of MAP2K7 and MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. May be an activator of the JNK/SAPK pathway. |
