General annotation (Comments)

Function	Involved in oxidative stress-mediated signaling cascade to oxidative (such as ozone). Involved in the innate immune MAP kinase signaling cascade (MEKK1, MKK4/MKK5 and MPK3/MPK6) downstream of bacterial flagellin receptor FLS2. May be involved in hypersensitive response (HR)-mediated signaling cascade. May phosphorylate regulators of WRKY transcription factors. Mediates the phosphorylation of VIP1 and subsequent stress genes transcription in response to Agrobacterium. Ref.9 Ref.13 Ref.15
Catalytic activity	ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
Enzyme regulation	Activated by threonine and tyrosine phosphorylation. Activated by MAP kinase kinases MKK4 and MKK5. Activated in response to hydrogen peroxide, ozone, salt stress and flagellin bacterial elicitor. Triggered by Agrobacterium upon T-DNA transfer. Repressed by DSPTP1B/MKP2-mediated dephosphorylation. Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.12 Ref.14 Ref.15
Subunit structure	Interacts with DSPTP1B/MKP2, NDPK2 and VIP1. The interaction with DSPTP1B/MKP2 is repressed by fungal elicitation. Ref.11 Ref.15 Ref.16
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note: Translocated into the nucleus in response to phosphorylation Probable. Ref.12
Induction	By touch, cold, salinity stress and ozone. Ref.5 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9 Ref.12 Ref.14 Ref.15
Domain	The TXY motif contains the threonine and tyrosine residues whose phosphorylation activates the MAP kinases.
Post-translational modification	Dually phosphorylated on Thr-196 and Tyr-198, which activates the enzyme By similarity. Dephosphorylated by DSPTP1B/MKP2. Ref.8 Ref.14
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase subfamily. Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
