MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 2 (MAPKAPK2) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAPKAPK2 gene. MAPKAP kinase-2 (MK2) is originally identified by its phosphorylation of glycogen synthase at serine-7 and the corresponding serine in a peptide (GS peptide-1) modelled after the N-terminus of glycogen synthase.

MAPKAP kinase-2 is a novel protein kinase activated by mitogen-activated protein kinase. This MAP kinase activated protein kinase, termed MAPKAP kinase-2, is distinguished from S6 kinase-II (MAPKAP kinase-1) by its response to inhibitors, lack of phosphorylation of S6 peptides and amino acid sequence.

  • HY-162700
    MK2-IN-6
    		Inhibitor
    MK2-IN-6 (Compound 11) is a potent and selective irreversible MK2 inhibitor with an IC50 value of 2.3 nM. MK2-IN-6 inhibits MK2 kinase activity, achieving prolonged MK2 signaling suppression and reducing pathological inflammatory cytokines in macrophages. MK2-IN-6 inhibits the M2-like protumor phenotype of macrophages both in vitro and in vivo, which is proming for research of colorectal cancer.
