p38 MAP kinase is the mammalian homologue of the yeast HOG kinase and participates in a cascade controlling cell cellular responses to cytokines and stress. Like the SAPK/JNK pathway,p38 MAP kinase is activated by a variety of cellular stresses including inflammatory cytokines,UV light and growth factors,etc. Activated p38 MAP kinase has been shown to phosphorylate and activate MAPKAP kinase-2 and to phosphorylate the transcription factors ATF-2 and Max.
应用类型
Western blotting (0.5-4 ug/ml), immunoprecipitation (10-20 ug/ml), and Immunohistochemistry (10-20 ug/ml). However, the optimal concentrations should be determined individually.
