General description

Research area: Cell Signaling

Recombinant, full-length, human MAP Kinase 1/Erk1 containing an N-terminal GST tag

Biochem/physiol Actions

Extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1 (ERK1)/ Extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2), as part of the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK signal transduction cascade, are involved in regulating a wide range of cellular processes, including cell adhesion, cell cycle progression, cell migration, cell survival, differentiation, metabolism, proliferation, and transcriptional control. Additionally, ERK1 signaling contributes to the regulation of cyclin D1 expression during the cell cycle. MAP kinases play a crucial role in inflammation and immune responses by regulating the production of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, as well as prostaglandins, in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation.

Ultraviolet light A (UVA) plays an important role in the etiology of human skin cancer, and UVA-induced signal transduction has a critical role in UVA-induced skin carcinogenesis. The upstream signaling pathways leading to p70(S6K) phosphorylation and activation are not well

Vav1 is a signaling protein required for both positive and negative selection of CD4(+)CD8(+) double positive thymocytes. Activation of the ERK MAPK pathway is also required for positive selection. Previous work has shown that Vav1 transduces T cell receptor (TCR)
