Descriptions

MAPKAPK2 is a stress-activated serine/threonine-protein kinase. MAPKAPK2, contains an autoinhibitory α-helix overlapping with a leucine-rich nuclear export signal (NES), and also lies close to the nuclear localization signal (NLS). The closed conformation of MAPKAPK2 prevents exportin binding to NES. Phosphorylation of MAPKAPK2 at threonine 317 induces a conformational change, thus unmasks and increases the activity of NES.

2 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
cytoplasm The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures.
nucleus A membrane-bounded organelle of eukaryotic cells in which chromosomes are housed and replicated. In most cells, the nucleus contains all of the cell's chromosomes except the organellar chromosomes, and is the site of RNA synthesis and processing. In some species, or in specialized cell types, RNA metabolism or DNA replication may be absent.

7 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
calcium-dependent protein serine/threonine kinase activity Calcium-dependent catalysis of the reactions
calmodulin binding Binding to calmodulin, a calcium-binding protein with many roles, both in the calcium-bound and calcium-free states.
calmodulin-dependent protein kinase activity Calmodulin-dependent catalysis of the reactions
mitogen-activated protein kinase binding Binding to a mitogen-activated protein kinase.
protein kinase activity Catalysis of the phosphorylation of an amino acid residue in a protein, usually according to the reaction
protein serine kinase activity Catalysis of the reactions

5 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
intracellular signal transduction The process in which a signal is passed on to downstream components within the cell, which become activated themselves to further propagate the signal and finally trigger a change in the function or state of the cell.
positive regulation of cell size Any process that increases cell size.
protein phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group on to a protein.
regulation of JNK cascade Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of signal transduction mediated by the JNK cascade.
response to salt stress Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a stimulus indicating an increase or decrease in the concentration of salt (particularly but not exclusively sodium and chloride ions) in the environment.
