JNK/c-Jun

JNKs (c-Jun N-terminal kinases) are a group of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), originally called stress activated protein kinases (SAPKs), because they are activated by various environmental stresses. They can also be activated by cytokines and growth factors.

JNKs (c-Jun N-terminal kinases) are a group of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), originally called stress activated protein kinases (SAPKs), because they are activated by a variety of environmental stresses. They are also activated in response to cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-1, and growth factors.

There are three isoforms of JNK; JNK1, JNK2 and JNK3. JNK1 and JNK2 are ubiquitously expressed, whilst JNK3 expression is limited to the brain, heart and testis. JNK phosphorylates a wide variety of substrates including c-Jun. c-Jun is a component of the AP-1 transcription factor complex and is involved in the control cell proliferation, transformation, survival and death. JNK also phosphorylates p53 and some non-nuclear proteins. JNK-mediated phosphorylation of target proteins is essential for the induction of gene expression of interleukins, VEGF, COX-2, MMP-9, heme oxygenase-1, ICAM-1, NCX1, GnRHR and others.

JNK is critical in processes as divergent as apoptosis, cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. The JNK pathway appears to be involved in inflammatory and autoimmune disorders including rheumatoid arthritis, irritable bowel disease, and atherosclerosis.

    MAPK Signaling Scientific Review

    MAPK Signaling Scientific Review

    MAP kinase signaling is integral to the regulation of numerous cellular processes such as proliferation and differentiation, and as a result is an important focus of cancer and immunology research. Updated for 2016, this review discusses the regulation of the MAPK pathway and properties of MAPK cascades. Compounds available from Tocris are listed.
