Recombinant Rat Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase 1, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: Mapk1-664R
• Product Overview: Recombinant rat MAP Kinase was tagged with a His tag at the N-terminus. The tagged protein was expressed inEscherichia coli.

Specification

• Species: Rat
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Description: MAPK1, also known as ERK(extracellular signal-regulated kinase), acts as an integration point for multiple biochemical signals, and is involved in a wide variety of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, transcription regulation and development. The activation of this kinase requires its phosphorylation by upstream kinases. Upon activation, this kinase translocates to the nucleus of the stimulated cells, where it phosphorylates nuclear targets.
• Biochem/physiol Actions: MAP kinase is a serine/threonine kinase that is activated by MEK through a phosphorylation cascade. The cascade starts with extracellular signals transmitted by growth factor-regulated receptor tyrosine kinases or G-protein coupled receptors. Dually phosphorylated (Thr and Tyr) MAP kinase translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, where it phosphorylates protein transcription factors, transducing extracellular signals into genomic responses, proliferation or differentiation.
• Unit Definition: One unit of activated MAP kinase will transfer 1 nmol of phosphate from ATP to myelin basic protein per min at 30 °C.
• Physical Form: Lyophilized powder containing Tris, pH 7.5, NaCl, and EGTA, with DTT and trehalose as stabilizers.
• Assay: ≥95% (SDS-PAGE).
• Form: lyophilized powder.
• Mol Wt: mol wt 42 kDa.
• Storage Temp: -20°C.
