DESCRIPTION

Also known as M3K11_HUMAN, MAP3K11, MLK3, PTK1, SPRK. Activates the JUN N-terminal pathway. Required for serum-stimulated cell proliferation and for mitogen and cytokine activation of MAPK14 (p38), MAPK3 (ERK) and MAPK8 (JNK1) through phosphorylation and activation of MAP2K4/MKK4 and MAP2K7/MKK7. Plays a role in mitogen-stimulated phosphorylation and activation of BRAF, but does not phosphorylate BRAF directly. Influences microtubule organization during the cell cycle. Homodimer; undergoes dimerization during activation (PubMed:9829970). Interacts with MAP2K4/MKK4 (By similarity). Interacts with MAP2K7/MKK7 (PubMed:9003778). Found in a complex with SH3RF1, RAC1, MAP2K7/MKK7, MAPK8IP1/JIP1 and MAPK8/JNK1 (By similarity).
