| Tissue Specificity | Widely expressed with higher expression in lung, skeletal muscle, brain, uterus, ovary, thyroid and prostate. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Activated by phosphorylation at Ser-218 by PDPK1. Autophosphorylated on Ser-377, as part of the activation process. May be phosphorylated at Thr-356 and Ser-360 by MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. N-terminal myristoylation results in an activated kinase in the absence of added growth factors. |
| Function | Serine/threonine-protein kinase that acts downstream of ERK (MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1) signaling and mediates mitogenic and stress-induced activation of transcription factors, regulates translation, and mediates cellular proliferation, survival, and differentiation. May function as tumor suppressor in epithelial ovarian cancer cells. |
