| Immunogen | Synthetic peptide taken within amino acid region 500-550 on human Mitogen-activated protein kinase 4. |
| Immunogen Region | 500-550 |
| Specificity | This blocking peptide is recommended for use in combination with MAPK4 antibody, STJ501706 |
Additional Info
| Tissue Specificity | High expression in heart and brain. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated at Ser-186 by PAK1, PAK2 and PAK3 resulting in catalytic activation. Phosphorylated by MAPKAPK5 at other sites. |
| Function | Atypical MAPK protein. Phosphorylates microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) and MAPKAPK5. The precise role of the complex formed with MAPKAPK5 is still unclear, but the complex follows a complex set of phosphorylation events: upon interaction with atypical MAPKAPK5, ERK4/MAPK4 is phosphorylated at Ser-186 and then mediates phosphorylation and activation of MAPKAPK5, which in turn phosphorylates ERK4/MAPK4. May promote entry in the cell cycle. |
