Map2k1 - mitogen activated protein kinase kinase 1 Gene
Also Known as Mek1
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Map2k1
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues, 8 paralogues and is associated with 38 phenotypes. Biased expression in Brain (RPKM 58.), Muscle (RPKM 31.3) and 9 other tissues.
Summary
Enables ATP binding activity; MAP kinase kinase activity; and enzyme binding activity. Involved in several processes, including establishment of vesicle localization; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of Ras protein signal transduction. Located in several cellular components, including dendrite cytoplasm; perikaryon; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is active in glutamatergic synapse and postsynaptic density. Colocalizes with microtubule. Used to study cataract and prostate adenocarcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in carcinoma (multiple); cardiofaciocutaneous syndrome 3; high grade glioma; and melorheostosis. Orthologous to human MAP2K1 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
