General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the concomitant phosphorylation of a threonine and a tyrosine residue in a Thr-Glu-Tyr sequence located in MAP kinases.

Catalytic activity

ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.

Tissue specificity

Expressed abundantly in the adult brain and muscle.

Developmental stage

It is initially expressed in the dorsal region of the embryo in a diffuse pattern at stage 17. Subsequently expression occurs in the early stages of development of the central nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord and eye. Later (stage 24) expression is found in the hindbrain, midbrain and forebrain and the somites. By stage 32, the expression is detected in the cranial neurons. Expression in the brain is increased, while expression in the spinal cord has decreased by stage 37.

Post-translational modification

MAPKK is itself dependent on Ser/Thr phosphorylation for activity catalyzed by MAP kinase kinase kinases.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase subfamily.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q07192-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q07192-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     51-51: G → GLQINLCDNTQS
Note: No experimental confirmation available.
