unusual facts about Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase


Tumor promotion

Simultaneously, tumor cells need to upregulate oncogenes, which promote or cause downstream activation of growth factors and cell survival signals such as Ras, Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase, VEGF, or Akt.


ANA773

TRAF6 activates NF-κB transcription factor ‘Mitogen Activated Protein Kinases’ (MAPK) and ‘c-jun NH2 Terminal Kinases' (Jnk) which activates the transcription factor ‘Activating Transcription Factor 2’ (ATF2).

Extracellular signal-regulated kinases

Mitogen-activated protein kinase 3 (MAPK3) is also known as "extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1" (ERK1).
