Function
MARK2 (Microtubule Affinity-Regulating Kinase 2) is a serine/threonine kinase that modulates microtubule dynamics by phosphorylating microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), thereby regulating cytoskeletal organization and cellular polarity[1][2]. Mechanistically, MARK2 phosphorylates specific sites within MAPs, including tau, which reduces microtubule binding and facilitates microtubule remodeling[3][1]. MARK2 activity influences multiple signaling pathways such as Hippo, mTOR, and NF-κB, connecting cytoskeletal regulation to cell proliferation, apoptosis, and intracellular transport[2]. In disease models, MARK2 dysregulation contributes to neurodegenerative conditions through tau hyperphosphorylation and is implicated in cancer progression via modulation of cell cycle and survival pathways[2]. Compared with related isoforms MARK1 and MARK4, MARK2 exhibits distinct substrate specificity and tissue expression patterns, enabling selective investigation of its cellular roles[1][2]. For experimental applications, selective inhibitors of MARK2 have been identified, including low-micromolar compounds based on 9-oxo-9H-acridin-10-yl scaffolds, which allow precise modulation of kinase activity in neuronal and cancer cell models[1]. These inhibitors are instrumental in studying microtubule dynamics, axon growth, and signal transduction with isoform-specific resolution[1]. MARK2 thus serves as a critical target for understanding cytoskeletal regulation in health and disease and for the development of kinase-targeted interventions[2].

Autophosphorylated. Phosphorylated at Thr-208 by STK11/LKB1 in complex with STE20-related adapter-alpha (STRADA) pseudo kinase and CAB39. Phosphorylation at Thr-208 by TAOK1 activates the kinase activity, leading to phosphorylation and detachment of MAPT/TAU from microtubules. Phosphorylation at Ser-212 by GSK3-beta (GSK3B) inhibits the kinase activity. Phosphorylation by CaMK1 promotes activity and is required to promote neurite outgrowth. Phosphorylation at Thr-596 by PRKCZ/aPKC in polarized epithelial cells inhibits the kinase activity and promotes binding to 14-3-3 protein YWHAZ, leading to relocation from cell membrane to cytoplasm -
Subunit
Homodimer. Interacts with PAK5; leading to inhibit the protein kinase activity (By similarity). Interacts with MAPT/TAU (PubMed:23666762). Interacts with MTCL1 isoform 1; the interaction is direct and increases MARK2 microtubule-binding ability (PubMed:23902687). Interacts (when phosphorylated at Thr-596) with YWHAZ (PubMed:15324659). Interacts with YWHAB, YWHAG and YWHAQ (PubMed:16959763)
