MAPK14 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 14) is a Ser/Thr kinase made of 90 to 360 residues. p38αMAPK is ubiquitously expressed. It is found in the cytosol, but it can translocate to the nucleus. This gene is located on human chromosome 6p21.31.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human p38 MAPK around the phosphorylation site of Tyr322.
Immunogen Range: 288-337
Biochem/physiol Actions
MAPK14 (mitogen-activated protein kinase 14) participates in resistance of colon cancer cells to camptothecin-related drugs. This protein is required for the growth of embryos. This gene controls proliferation, differentiation, cell death, adhesion, migration, as well as the response to stress and many metabolic pathways. Polymorphism in MAPK14/p38a leads to deletion or overproduction of myelosuppressive cytokines and result in certain bone marrow failure syndromes.
