Disease relevance of MAPK12

  • Inspection of the 17 genes uniquely regulated by ERK5 revealed that 14 genes (82%) were previously associated with hypoxia via regulation by HIF-1 [1].
  • These studies thus demonstrate the essential role of p38gamma in K-Ras transformation independent of phosphorylation, and elevated p38gamma may serve as a novel diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for human colon cancer [2].
  • The i.t. administration of ERK5 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide reversed heat hyperalgesia, but not mechanical allodynia, produced by capsaicin injection [3].
  • Taken together, these findings suggest that the in vivo activation of the ERK5 signaling pathway in sensory neurons by noxious stimulation may be, at least in part, correlated with functional activity and, further, involved in the development of pain hypersensitivity [3].
  • Cisplatin and UV radiation induce activation of the stress-activated protein kinase p38gamma in human melanoma cells [4].
 

High impact information on MAPK12

  • Big MAP kinase (Bmk1), also known as Erk5, is a member of the MAP kinase family that is activated in cells in response to oxidative stress, hyperosmolarity and treatment with serum [5].
  • Interestingly, an NES mutant of c-Fos, but not wild-type, substitutes ERK5 activity for HeLa cell proliferation [6].
  • Moreover, UBR1 depletion in HeLa cells, which constitutively express UBR1 at a high level, enhances both c-Fos expression and cell growth, whereas ERK5 depletion reduces both of them [6].
  • ERK5 inhibits the nuclear export of c-Fos by phosphorylating Thr232 in the c-Fos NES(221-233) and disrupts the interaction of c-Fos with UBR1 by phosphorylating Ser32 [6].
  • Co-transfection with SAPKK3 induced SAPK3 activity and greatly enhanced activation in response to osmotic shock [7].
