MAPK1 His Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. MAPK1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 380 amino acids (1-360 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 43.5 kDa. The MAPK1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 (MAPK1) is also known as 'extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2' (ERK2) . Two similar (85% sequence identity) protein kinases were originally called ERK1 and ERK2. They were found during a search for protein kinases that are rapidly phosphorylated after activation of cell surface tyrosine kinases such as the epidermal growth factor receptor. Phosphorylation of ERKs leads to the activation of their kinase activity.The molecular events linking cell surface receptors to activation of ERKs are complex. It was found that Ras GTP-binding proteins are involved in the activation of ERKs. Another protein kinase, Raf-1, was shown to phosphorylate a 'MAPK kinase', thus qualifying as a 'MAPK kinase kinase'.
