MAPK3 is a part of the MAP kinase family which is recognized as extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), that function in a signaling cascade that controls various cellular procedures such as proliferation, differentiation, and cell cycle progression in reaction to a variety of extracellular signals. MAPK3 is activated by upstream kinases, resulting in its translocation to the nucleus where it phosphorylates nuclear targets.
MAPK3 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 399 amino acids (1-379 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 45.2 kDa. The MAPK3 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
