P38 Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody

Cell localization:Cytoplasm, Nucleus.The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the MAP kinase family. MAP kinases act as an integration point for mμLtiple biochemical signals, and are involved in a wide variety of cellμLar processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regμLation and development. This kinase is activated by various environmental stresses and proinflammatory cytokines. The activation requires its phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinases (MKKs), or its autophosphorylation triggered by the interaction of MAP3K7IP1/TAB1 protein with this kinase. The substrates of this kinase include transcription regμLator ATF2, MEF2C, and MAX, cell cycle regμLator CDC25B, and tumor suppressor p53, which suggest the roles of this kinase in stress related transcription and cell cycle regμLation, as well as in genotoxic stress response. Four alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene encoding d
