Summary

MAP3K12 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 12, HGNC:6851) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12q13.13, encoding Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 12 (Q12852). Part of a non-canonical MAPK signaling pathway.

This gene encodes a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. This kinase contains a leucine-zipper domain and is predominately expressed in neuronal cells. The phosphorylation state of this kinase in synaptic terminals was shown to be regulated by membrane depolarization via calcineurin. This kinase forms heterodimers with leucine zipper containing transcription factors, such as cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB) and MYC, and thus may play a regulatory role in PKA or retinoic acid induced neuronal differentiation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different proteins have been described.

Function. Part of a non-canonical MAPK signaling pathway. Activated by APOE, enhances the AP-1-mediated transcription of APP, via a MAP kinase signal transduction pathway composed of MAP2K7 and MAPK1/ERK2 and MAPK3/ERK1. May be an activator of the JNK/SAPK pathway.

Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with MBIP.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cell membrane.

Tissue specificity. Highly expressed in brain and kidney.

Post-translational modifications. Autophosphorylated on Ser/Thr. Phosphorylated in cytosol under basal conditions and dephosphorylated when membrane-associated. The activity of MAP3K12 can be regulated through its proteasomal degradation. APOE, through a receptor-mediated mechanism, activates MAP3K12 by preventing its proteasomal degradation.

Domain organisation. Interacts with MBIP through the leucine-zipper motif.

Similarity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily.
