Descriptions
(Annotation based on sequence homology with P36507)
MAP2K2 encodes for Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2, belongs to MAP2Ks family, plays an important role in MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. The autoinhibitory state of MAP2K2 is more stable as dimer in the absence of its own substrates or other interacting partners. The several interactions span from the N-terminal to the C-terminal to form dimer. Dimerization of MAP2K2 blocks access to the substrate binding site and the activation loop from macromolecules. MAP2K2 has high sequence similarity with MAP2K1, and the same mechanism of autoinhibition.

ATP binding | Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator. |
MAP kinase kinase activity | Catalysis of the concomitant phosphorylation of threonine (T) and tyrosine (Y) residues in a Thr-Glu-Tyr (TEY) thiolester sequence in a MAP kinase (MAPK) substrate. |
metal ion binding | Binding to a metal ion. |
protein serine kinase activity | Catalysis of the reactions: ATP + protein serine = ADP + protein serine phosphate. |
protein serine/threonine kinase activity | Catalysis of the reactions: ATP + protein serine = ADP + protein serine phosphate, and ATP + protein threonine = ADP + protein threonine phosphate. |
protein tyrosine kinase activity | Catalysis of the reaction: ATP + a protein tyrosine = ADP + protein tyrosine phosphate. |

MAPK cascade | An intracellular protein kinase cascade containing at least a MAPK, a MAPKK and a MAP3K. The cascade can also contain an additional tiers: the upstream MAP4K. The kinases in each tier phosphorylate and activate the kinase in the downstream tier to transmit a signal within a cell. |
