Background	MEK1is a dual specificity protein kinase that belongs to the MAP kinase kinase family. This kinase is known to play a critical role in mitogen growth factor signal transduction. It phosphorylates and thus activates MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK2/ERK3. The activation of this kinase itself is dependent on the Ser/Thr phosphorylation by MAP kinase kinase kinases. The inhibition or degradation of this kinase is found to be involved in the pathogenesis of Yersinia and anthrax.
Synonyms	MAPKK 1, ERK activator kinase 1, MAPK/ERK kinase 1, MEK1, PRKMK1, MAP kinase kinase 1
Note	Molecular weight: 44424 Da
