N-terminal GST and Cterminal His6-tagged, recombinant full-length human MEK1

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) is a hydrophilic non-receptor protein kinase that shows ubiquitous expression across different cell types. It serves as a critical component of the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signal transduction cascade, also known as the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade. This signaling pathway plays a crucial role in regulating various biological processes, including apoptosis, cell cycle progression, cell migration, differentiation, metabolism, and proliferation. Additionally, MEK1 protein contributes to the development of the extra-embryonic ectoderm during placentogenesis. Somatic mutations in the MEK1 gene have been observed in individuals with melanoma, a form of skin cancer.
