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.

4 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.
perikaryon The portion of the cell soma (neuronal cell body) that excludes the nucleus.
synapse The junction between an axon of one neuron and a dendrite of another neuron, a muscle fiber or a glial cell. As the axon approaches the synapse it enlarges into a specialized structure, the presynaptic terminal bouton, which contains mitochondria and synaptic vesicles. At the tip of the terminal bouton is the presynaptic membrane; facing it, and separated from it by a minute cleft (the synaptic cleft) is a specialized area of membrane on the receiving cell, known as the postsynaptic membrane. In response to the arrival of nerve impulses, the presynaptic terminal bouton secretes molecules of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft. These diffuse across the cleft and transmit the signal to the postsynaptic membrane.

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

8 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
behavioral response to nicotine Any process that results in a change in the behavior of an organism as a result of a nicotine stimulus.
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.
phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.
positive regulation of 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA stabilization Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA stabilization.
positive regulation of axon extension involved in regeneration Any process that activates, maintains or increases the rate of axon extension involved in regeneration.
regulation of 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA stabilization Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of 3'-UTR-mediated mRNA stabilization.
regulation of axon extension involved in axon guidance Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of axon extension involved in axon guidance.
regulation of presynapse assembly Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of presynapse assembly.
