Human MKK6 Recombinant Protein (RPES1931)

Human MKK6 Recombinant Protein

Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 6; also known as MAP kinase kinase 6; MAPKK 6; MAPK / ERK kinase 6; SAPKK3; MAP2K6 and MKK6; is a protein which belongs to the?protein kinase superfamily; STE Ser / Thr protein kinase family and MAP kinase kinase subfamily. MAP2K6 / MKK6 contains one?protein kinase domain. Mitogen-activated protein kinases are members of a conserved cascade of kinases involved in many signal transduction pathways. They stimulate phosphorylation of transcription factors in response to extracellular signals such as growth factors; cytokines; ultraviolet light; and stress-inducing agents. MAP2K6 / MKK6 exists in a variety of alternatively spliced isoforms with distinct patterns of tissue expression. Isoform 2 of MAP2K6 / MKK6 is only expressed in skeletal muscle. Isoform 1 of MAP2K6 / MKK6 is expressed in skeletal muscle; heart; and in lesser extent in liver or pancreas.
