KSR2  -  kinase suppressor of ras 2

Homo sapiens

 
Welcome! If you are familiar with the subject of this article, you can contribute to this open access knowledge base by deleting incorrect information, restructuring or completely rewriting any text.

Ideally this entry shall become one comprehensive and continuous article. Bulleted lists, for instance, were only used because it is impossible to automatically integrate independent facts into a continuous text.

Much of the current information on this page has been automatically compiled from Pubmed.

This precompiled information serves as a substrate and matrix to embed your contributions, but it is by no means the final word - Homo sapiens can do much better!

WikiGenes is a non-profit and open access community project.

 

 

High impact information on KSR2

  • Identification of a novel human kinase supporter of Ras (hKSR-2) that functions as a negative regulator of Cot (Tpl2) signaling [1].
  • hKSR-2 inhibits MEKK3-activated MAP kinase and NF-kappaB pathways in inflammation [2].
  • Michaelis constants, maximum velocities, estradiol-17beta/testosterone (E(2)/T) activity ratios and inhibition patterns were consistent with a predominance of microsomal 17HSD/KSR2 and cytosolic 17HSD/KSR5, isoforms reactive with both E(2) and T, with evidence of estrogenic 17HSD/KSR1 in cytosol from some samples [3].
