MEK2 N-Term Blocking Peptide

Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2, also known as MEK2 or MKK2, is an integral component of the MAP kinase cascade that regulates cell growth and differentiation. This pathway also plays a key role in synaptic plasticity in the brain. Activated MEK 2 acts as a dual specificity kinase phosphorylating both a threonine and a tyrosine residue on MAP kinase. MEK1 and MEK2 are about 80% identical to each other, and nearly identical within the kinase domain. MEK2 is ideal for investigators involved in Neuroscience, Cell Signaling and Cancer Research. MEK2 N-term blocking peptide is suitable as a control for polyclonal or monoclonal Anti-MEK2 in immunological assays.
