A central role for p38 MAPK in the early transcriptional response to stress
The mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 (p38 MAPK) is activated by a number of stresses. A recent study in BMC Genomics has uncovered the early transcriptional responses to three types of stress and has demonstrated a central role for p38 MAPK in ...

p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases: their role in carcinogenesis [PDF]
[EN]: The members of the p38 subfamily of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) are a versatile group of proteins, that function as signal transducers involved in key cellular functions. Initially, p38 MAPKs were associated with inflammatory and cellular stress responses and, as such, p38 has been an important target for anti-inflammatory therapies.

Ets-2 is a target for an Akt (protein kinase B)/Jun N-terminal kinase signaling pathway in macrophages of motheaten-viable mutant mice [PDF]
The transcription factor ets-2 was phosphorylated at residue threonine 72 in a colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1)- and mitogen-activated protein kinase-independent manner in macrophages isolated from motheaten-viable (me-v) mice.

Molecular Cloning and Characterization of aDrosophila p38 Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase [PDF]
A mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) has been cloned and sequenced from a Drosophila neoplasmic l(2)mbn cell line. The cDNA sequence analysis showed that this Drosophila kinase is a homologue of mammalian p38 MAPK and the yeast HOG1 gene and thus was referred to as Dp38.
