| Background Information | Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 7 (UniProt: O14733; also known as EC:2.7.12.2, MAP kinase kinase 7, MAPKK 7, JNK-activating kinase 2, MAPK/ERK kinase 7, MEK 7;Stress-activated protein kinase kinase 4, SKK4, SAPK kinase 4, SAPKK-4, SAPKK4, c-Jun N-terminal kinase kinase 2,JNK kinase 2, JNKK 2) is encoded by the MAP2K7 (also known as JNKK2, MEK7, MKK7, RKMK7, SKK4) gene (Gene ID: 5609) in human. MKK4/SKK4 belongs to the STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family and is an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. MKK4/SKK4 is ubiquitously expressed with highest level of expression reported in skeletal muscle. It contains a single protein kinase domain and has a DVD domain (aa 377-400) that contains a conserved docking site and bind to their specific upstream MAP kinase kinase kinases (MAPK3Ks). MKK4/SKK4 also has a D domain in the N-terminal region (aa 37-57), which contains a conserved docking site that is required for the binding of MAPK substrates. It is activated by phosphorylation on Ser271 and Thr275 by MAP kinase kinase kinases (MAP3Ks) and it directly phosphorylates and activates the c-Jun NH2-terminal kinases (JNK), in response to cellular stresses and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Mice lacking the MKK4 gene are shown to have abnormal hepatogenesis and die before embryonic day 14. |

| Entrez Gene Number |
|
| Entrez Gene Summary | The protein encoded by this gene is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase specifically activates MAPK8/JNK1 and MAPK9/JNK2, and this kinase itself is phosphorylated and activated by MAP kinase kinase kinases including MAP3K1/MEKK1, MAP3K2/MEKK2,MAP3K3/MEKK5, and MAP4K2/GCK. This kinase is involved in the signal transduction mediating the cell responses to proinflammatory cytokines, and environmental stresses. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found, but only one transcript variant has been supported and defined. |
