Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Scaffold Protein 1 (MAPKSP1) was identified as an interacting protein that belongs to the LAMTOR3 family. MAPKSP1 restricted to late endosomes by the mitogen-activated protein-binding protein-interacting protein, and binds specifically to MAP kinase kinase MAP2K1 MEK1, MAP kinase MAPK3 ERK1, and MAP kinase MAPK1 ERK2. MAPKSP1 interacts with MAP2K1 MEK1 and MAPK2 and enhances the activation of MAPK2, and thus is thought to function as an adaptor to enhance the efficiency of the MAP kinase cascade.

MAPK1IP1L Protein, Human, Recombinant (hFc) is expressed in HEK293 mammalian cells with C-hFc tag. The predicted molecular weight is 53.1 kDa and the accession number is Q8NDC0.

Ragulator complex protein LAMTOR2, also known as Endosomal adaptor protein p14, Late endosomal lysosomal Mp1-interacting protein, Late endosomal lysosomal adaptor and MAPK and MTOR activator 2, Mitogen-activated protein-binding protein-interacting protein, Roadblock domain-containing protein 3, LAMTOR2, MAPBPIP, and ROBLD3, is a protein which belongs to the GAMAD family. LAMTOR2 ROBLD3 is a regulator of the TOR pathway, a signaling cascade that promotes cell growth in response to growth factors, energy levels, and amino acids. As part of the Ragulator complex, LAMTOR2 ROBLD3 recruits the Rag GTPases and the mTORC1 complex to lysosomes, a key step in the activation of the TOR signaling cascade by amino acids. LAMTOR2 ROBLD3 is an adapter protein that enhances the efficiency of the MAP kinase cascade facilitating the activation of MAPK2. Defects in LAMTOR2 are the cause of immunodeficiency due to defects in MAPBP-interacting protein (ID-MAPBPIP). This form of primary immunodeficiency syndrome includes congenital neutropenia, partial albinism, short stature, and B-cell and cytotoxic T-cell deficiency.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 2, also known as B lymphocyte serine threonine-protein kinase, Germinal center kinase, MAPK ERK kinase kinase kinase 2, MEK kinase kinase 2, Rab8-interacting protein, and MAP4K2, is cytoplasm and peripheral membrane protein that belongs to the protein kinase superfamily, STE Ser Thr protein kinase family and STE2 subfamily. MAP4K2 contains one CNH domain and one protein kinase domain. Although this kinase is found in many tissues, its expression in lymphoid follicles is restricted to the cells of the germinal center, where it may participate in B-cell differentiation. MAP4K2 can be activated by TNF-alpha and has been shown to specifically activate MAP kinases. It is also found to interact with TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), which is involved in the activation of MAP3K1 MEKK1. MAP4K2 enhances MAP3K1 oligomerization, which may relieve amino-terminal mediated MAP3K1 autoinhibition and lead to activation following autophosphorylation. It may also play a role in the regulation of vesicle targeting or fusion.

Tribbles homolog 3, also known as Neuronal cell death-inducible putative kinase, p65-interacting inhibitor of NF-kappa-B, SINK and TRIB3, is a Nucleus protein that belongs to the protein kinase superfamily and CAMK Ser Thr protein kinase family and Tribbles subfamily. Highest expression Of TRIB3 is in liver, pancreas, peripheral blood leukocytes and bone marrow. It is also highly expressed in a number of primary lung, colon and breast tumors. TRIB3 is expressed in spleen, thymus, and prostate and is undetectable in other examined tissues, including testis, ovary, small intestine, colon, leukocyte, heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, and kidney. TRIB3 disrupts insulin signaling by binding directly to Akt kinases and blocking their activation. TRIB3 may bind directly to and mask the 'Thr-38' phosphorylation site in AKT1. It binds to ATF4 and inhibits its transcriptional activation activity. TRIB3 interacts with the NF-kappa-B transactivator p65 RELA and inhibits its phosphorylation and thus its transcriptional activation activity. It interacts with MAPK kinases and regulates activation of MAP kinases. It may play a role in programmed neuronal cell death but does not appear to affect non-neuronal cells. TRIB3 does not display kinase activity.
