Background

Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2 (MAP2K2), also called PRKMK2 or MEK2, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAP2K2 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. MAP2K2 is mapped to 19p13.3. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction, and the inhibition or degradation of this kinase is found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax. Recombinant MEK2 and MEK1 both could activate human ERK1 in vitro, and they further characterized biochemically the 2 MAP2Ks. MAP2K2 has been shown to interact with MAPK3 and ARAF.
