Peptide Name: MEKK2 (236-242) pS239

Product Use: Services as a blocking peptide for use with the MEKK2-pS239 rabbit polyclonal antibody (Cat. No.: AB-PK700) that is also available from Kinexus. This phosphopeptide may also be useful as a substrate for screening the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatases. The peptide sequence is located in the region between the PB1 domain and the protein kinase catalytic domain. The effect of its phosphorylation is unclear. This is a major site of phosphorylation for MEKK2.

Scientific Background: MEKK2 (MAP3K2) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the STE group and STE11 family. It is required for cytokine production in cultured mast cells. The protein is one of the kinases that regulate different steps of the caveolar cycle. It activated by phosphorylation on T524. Methylation of the protein increases MAP kinase signalling and promotes Ras-driven carcinomas.
