Mos stimulates MAP kinase in Xenopus oocytes and activates a MAP kinase kinase in vitro. [PDF]
Several protein kinases, including Mos, maturation-promoting factor (MPF), mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase, and MAP kinase kinase (MAPKK), are activated when Xenopus oocytes enter meiosis. De novo synthesis of the Mos protein is required for progesterone-induced meiotic maturation.

Different roles for non-receptor tyrosine kinases in arachidonate release induced by zymosan and Staphylococcus aureus in macrophages [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Yeast and bacteria elicit arachidonate release in macrophages, leading to the formation of leukotrienes and prostaglandins, important mediators of inflammation.

Molecular structure of a protein-tyrosine/threonine kinase activating p42 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase: MAP kinase kinase. [PDF]
MAP kinases p42mapk and p44mapk participate in a protein kinase cascade(s) important for signaling in many cell types and contexts. Both MAP kinases are activated in vitro by MAP kinase kinase, a protein-tyrosine and threonine kinase. A MAP kinase kinase

Computational Prediction and Experimental Verification of New MAP Kinase Docking Sites and Substrates Including Gli Transcription Factors [PDF]
In order to fully understand protein kinase networks, new methods are needed to identify regulators and substrates of kinases, especially for weakly expressed proteins.

Staphylococcal PknB as the First Prokaryotic Representative of the Proline-Directed Kinases [PDF]
In eukaryotic cell types, virtually all cellular processes are under control of proline-directed kinases and especially MAP kinases. Serine/threonine kinases in general were originally considered as a eukaryote-specific enzyme family.

MAP-ping genomic organization and organ-specific expression profiles of poplar MAP kinases and MAP kinase kinases [PDF]
Abstract Background As in other eukaryotes, plant mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are composed of three classes of hierarchically organized protein kinases, namely MAPKKKs, MAPKKs, and MAPKs. These modules rapidly amplify and transduce extracellular signals into various appropriate intracellular ...

Regulation of Nuclear Envelope Assembly/Disassembly by MAP Kinase [PDF]
Mouse eggs arrested in metaphase II display high levels of cdc2/cyclin B1 and MAP protein kinase activities. Following fertilization there is a time-dependent decrease in the activity of each of these protein kinases.

Regulation and function of TPL-2, an IκB kinase-regulated MAP kinase kinase kinase [PDF]
The IκB kinase (IKK) complex plays a well-documented role in innate and adaptive immunity. This function has been widely attributed to its role as the central activator of the NF-κB family of transcription factors. However, another important consequence of IKK activation is the regulation of TPL-2, a MEK kinase that is required for activation of ERK-1 ...

MAP kinases are activated within protein kinase cascades that regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, and death. In mammals, MAP kinases are grouped into three families: ERKs, JNKs, and p38/SAPKs.
