Size:      $US
Peptide Name: MAPKAPK5 (179-192) pT182+pT186+pT190+pY192+pY193

Product Use: This phosphopeptide may be useful as a substrate for screening the phosphatase activity of protein phosphatases. The peptide sequence is located in the protein kinase catalytic domain activation T loop region between subdomains VII and VIII. T182 phosphorylation is stimulatory for phosphotransferase activity and T186 phosphorylation is predicted to be activatory. T190, Y192 and Y193 phosphorylations are predicted to be inhibitory for phosphotransferase activity.

Scientific Background: MAPKAPK5 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CAMK group and MAPKAPK family. p38 alpha and beta-dependent phosphorylation increases its activity. It is activated by stress-related extracellular stimuli; such as H2O2, arsenite, anisomycin TNF alpha and also PMA and the calcium ionophore A23187; but to a lesser extent. In vitro, activated by SQSTM1. T182A substitution leads to no p38-beta/MAPK11-induced activation. In addition, T182D, S212D and L337G mutations are associated with higher protein kinase activity. It appears to be a tumour suppressor protein (TSP) that mediates Ras-induced senescence and phosphorylates p53/TP53. It also phosphorylates FOXO3, ERK3/MAPK6, ERK4/MAPK4, HSP27/HSPB1, and RHEB.
