Background: MAP2K1, MEK1, PRKMK1, Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1, MAP kinase kinase 1, MAPKK 1, MKK1, ERK activator kinase 1, MAPK/ERK kinase 1, MEK 1, MAP2K2, MEK2, MKK2, PRKMK2, Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kMitogen-activated protein kinase 1 encoded by MAP2K1 is a member of the dual specificity protein kinase family, which acts as a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase. MAP kinases, also known as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), act as an integration point for multiple biochemical signals. Mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 lies upstream of MAP kinases and stimulates the enzymatic activity of MAP kinases upon wide variety of extra- and intracellular signals. As an essential component of MAP kinase signal transduction pathway,Mitogen-activated protein kinase 1 is involved in many cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regulation and development.
