    text
  • co-localizes with activated JNK along microtubules
  • localized both in the cytoplasm and cell nucleus
  • basic FUNCTION
  • induction of apoptosis
  • serine/threonine protein kinase involved in nerve growth factor (NGF) induced neuronal apoptosis
  • activating the JUN N-terminal pathway
  • playing a role in the neuronal death mechanism
  • role for MAP3K10 and the stress-signaling pathway at sites of clathrin activity in vesicle formation or trafficking
  • regulates NTRK2 expression through phosphorylation of an activation domain of TCF3
  • both hippocalcin and MAP3K10 may be associated with the pathogenesis of Parkinson disease
  • upstream activator of JNKs and activation of MAP3K10-mediated signaling cascades play roles in neurodegenerative and apoptotic mechanisms in the central nervous system
  • able to phosphorylate COPS2 in immune-kinase assays
  • MAP3K10 is an upstream activating kinase of JUN N-terminal kinase (JNK), which regulates adult neurogenesis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS cell life, cell death/apoptosis
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
    JNK cascade
    a component
  • homodimerization via the leucine zipper domains is required for autophosphorylation and subsequent activation
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • normal huntingtin, NEUROD1, HAP1
  • clathrin is a binding partner for MAP3K10 in mammalian brain (clathrin binding requires a motif (LLDMD) located near the MLK2 C terminus, which is similar to "clathrin box" motifs important for binding of clathrin coat assembly and accessory proteins to the clathrin heavy chain)
  • interacting partner for the corepressor COPS2
  • interacting with TCF3 (enhances phosphorylation of the AD2 activation domain of TCF3)
  • MAP3K4 and MAP3K10 are sufficient for mediating the TGFB1-induced activation of MAPK14
  • MAP3K10 is a novel NCALD interacting partner
  • WBP2 is a target of the Hippo/MAP3K10, and MAP3K10 is identified as yet another rheostat in the regulation of WBP2 and its oncogenic function
