Synonyms | MEK3, MKK3, PRKMK3, SKK2 |
Function | Dual specificity kinase. Is activated by cytokines and environmental stress in vivo. Catalyzes the concomitant phosphorylation of a threonine and a tyrosine residue in the MAP kinase p38. Part of a signaling cascade that begins with the activation of the adrenergic receptor ADRA1B and leads to the activation of MAPK14. |
Tissue Location | Abundant expression is seen in the skeletal muscle. It is also widely expressed in other tissues |

Background
MKK3 is a protein kinase that phosphorylates the p38 MAPK. Phosphorylation by MKK3 occurs on threonine and tyrosine residues and increases the activity of p38 to stimulate transcription factors ATF2 and Elk-1. MKK3, together with MKK6, serves as upstream regulators of p38 MAPK activation. A structural variant, MKK3b, has been identified that contains 29 more amino acids at its N-terminus.
