    basic FUNCTION
  • regulator of the stress activated protein kinase (MAPK8)
  • regulator or key of beta cell function
  • scaffold protein that interacts with components of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signal-transduction pathway
  • function as a scaffold protein of the JNK signaling cascade in the cytoplasm or as a transcription factor in nuclei
  • necessary for normal axonal development and promotes axonal growth dependent upon its binding to kinesin-1 and via a newly described interaction with the ABL tyrosine kinase
  • important regulator of axonal development and is a key target of ABL-dependent pathways that control axonal growth
  • because it is involved in regulating cargo binding to kinesin motors, hyperphosphorylated Tau potentially can mediates impaired axonal transport in Alzheimer disease and frontotemporal dementia
  • MAPK8IP1 and MAPK8IP2 proteins are required for normal glucose homeostasis, and can influence insulin-stimulated signal transduction mediated by IRS proteins
  • may be acting as a scaffold protein that mediates JNK activation
  • MAPK8IP1-mediated JNK activation plays a critical role in metabolic stress regulation of the JNK signaling pathway
  • suppresses NOTCH1 activity
