DESCRIPTION

Also known as MK10_HUMAN, MAPK10, JNK3, JNK3A, PRKM10, SAPK1B. Serine/threonine-protein kinase involved in various processes such as neuronal proliferation, differentiation, migration and programmed cell death. Extracellular stimuli such as proinflammatory cytokines or physical stress stimulate the stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (SAP/JNK) signaling pathway. In this cascade, two dual specificity kinases MAP2K4/MKK4 and MAP2K7/MKK7 phosphorylate and activate MAPK10/JNK3. In turn, MAPK10/JNK3 phosphorylates a number of transcription factors, primarily components of AP-1 such as JUN and ATF2 and thus regulates AP-1 transcriptional activity. Plays regulatory roles in the signaling pathways during neuronal apoptosis. Phosphorylates the neuronal microtubule regulator STMN2. Acts in the regulation of the amyloid-beta precursor protein/APP signaling during neuronal differentiation by phosphorylating APP. Participates also in neurite growth in spiral ganglion neurons. Phosphorylates the CLOCK-ARNTL/BMAL1 heterodimer and plays a role in the photic regulation of the circadian clock (PubMed:22441692). Phosphorylates JUND and this phosphorylation is inhibited in the presence of MEN1 (PubMed:22327296). Interacts with MAPKBP1 (By similarity). Interacts with MAPK8IP1/JIP-1 and MAPK8IP3/JIP-3/JSAP1 (By similarity). Interacts with SPAG9/MAPK8IP4/JIP4 (PubMed:15693750). Interacts with HDAC9 (PubMed:16611996). Interacts with ARRB2; the interaction enhances MAPK10 activation by MAP3K5 (PubMed:18435604). Interacts with SARM1 (By similarity). Interacts with JUND; interaction is inhibited in the presence of MEN1 (PubMed:22327296).
