Summary
MAP3K20 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 20, HGNC:17797) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q31.1, encoding Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 20 (Q9NYL2). Stress-activated component of a protein kinase signal transduction cascade that promotes programmed cell death in response to various stress, such as ribosomal stress, osmotic shock and ionizing radiation.
This gene is a member of the MAPKKK family of signal transduction molecules and encodes a protein with an N-terminal kinase catalytic domain, followed by a leucine zipper motif and a sterile-alpha motif (SAM). This magnesium-binding protein forms homodimers and is located in the cytoplasm. The protein mediates gamma radiation signaling leading to cell cycle arrest and activity of this protein plays a role in cell cycle checkpoint regulation in cells. The protein also has pro-apoptotic activity. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

Function. Stress-activated component of a protein kinase signal transduction cascade that promotes programmed cell death in response to various stress, such as ribosomal stress, osmotic shock and ionizing radiation. Acts by catalyzing phosphorylation of MAP kinase kinases, leading to activation of the JNK (MAPK8/JNK1, MAPK9/JNK2 and/or MAPK10/JNK3) and MAP kinase p38 (MAPK11, MAPK12, MAPK13 and/or MAPK14) pathways. Activates JNK through phosphorylation of MAP2K4/MKK4 and MAP2K7/MKK7, and MAP kinase p38 gamma (MAPK12) via phosphorylation of MAP2K3/MKK3 and MAP2K6/MKK6. Involved in stress associated with adrenergic stimulation: contributes to cardiac decompensation during periods of acute cardiac stress. May be involved in regulation of S and G2 cell cycle checkpoint by mediating phosphorylation of CHEK2. Key component of the stress-activated protein kinase signaling cascade in response to ribotoxic stress or UV-B irradiation. Acts as the proximal sensor of ribosome collisions during the ribotoxic stress response (RSR): directly binds to the ribosome by inserting its flexible C-terminus into the ribosomal intersubunit space, thereby acting as a sentinel for colliding ribosomes. Upon ribosome collisions, activates either the stress-activated protein kinase signal transduction cascade or the integrated stress response (ISR), leading to programmed cell death or cell survival, respectively. Dangerous levels of ribosome collisions trigger the autophosphorylation and activation of MAP3K20, which dissociates from colliding ribosomes and phosphorylates MAP kinase kinases, leading to activation of the JNK and MAP kinase p38 pathways that promote programmed cell death. Less dangerous levels of ribosome collisions trigger the integrated stress response (ISR): MAP3K20 activates EIF2AK4/GCN2 independently of its protein-kinase activity, promoting EIF2AK4/GCN2-mediated phosphorylation of EIF2S1/eIF-2-alpha. Also part of the stress-activated protein kinase signaling cascade triggering the NLRP1 inflammasome in response to UV-B irradiation: ribosome collisions activate MAP3K20, which directly phosphorylates NLRP1, leading to activation of the NLRP1 inflammasome and subsequent pyroptosis. NLRP1 is also phosphorylated by MAP kinase p38 downstream of MAP3K20. Also acts as a histone kinase by phosphorylating histone H3 at ‘Ser-28’ (H3S28ph). Isoform that lacks the C-terminal region that mediates ribosome-binding: does not act as a sensor of ribosome collisions in response to ribotoxic stress. May act as an antagonist of isoform ZAKalpha: interacts with isoform ZAKalpha, leading to decrease the expression of isoform ZAKalpha.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Interacts with ZNF33A. Component of a signaling complex containing at least AKAP13, PKN1, MAPK14, MAP3K20 and MAP2K3. Within this complex, AKAP13 interacts directly with PKN1, which in turn recruits MAPK14, MAP2K3 and MAP3K20. Interacts with EIF2AK4/GCN2; promoting EIF2AK4/GCN2 kinase activity. Interacts with isoform ZAKbeta. Interacts with isoform ZAKalpha.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Nucleus.
Tissue specificity. Ubiquitously expressed. Isoform ZAKbeta is the predominant form in all tissues examined, except for liver, in which isoform ZAKalpha is more highly expressed.
Post-translational modifications. Activated by phosphorylation by PKN1, followed by autophosphorylation on Thr-161 and Ser-165. Autophosphorylation in response to ribotoxic stress promotes dissociation from colliding ribosomes and activation.
Disease relevance. Split-foot malformation with mesoaxial polydactyly (SFMMP) [MIM:616890] An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a split-foot defect, mesoaxial polydactyly, nail abnormalities of the hands, and sensorineural hearing loss. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Myopathy, centronuclear, 6, with fiber-type disproportion (CNM6) [MIM:617760] A form of centronuclear myopathy, a congenital muscle disorder characterized by progressive muscular weakness and wasting involving mainly limb girdle, trunk, and neck muscles. It may also affect distal muscles. Weakness may be present during childhood or adolescence or may not become evident until the third decade of life. Ptosis is a frequent clinical feature. The most prominent histopathologic features include high frequency of centrally located nuclei in muscle fibers not secondary to regeneration, radial arrangement of sarcoplasmic strands around the central nuclei, and predominance and hypotrophy of type 1 fibers. CNM6 is an autosomal recessive, slowly progressive form with onset in infancy or early childhood. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Activity regulation. Activated in response to stress, such as ribosomal stress, osmotic shock and ionizing radiation. Activated by phosphorylation by PKN1, followed by autophosphorylation on Thr-161 and Ser-165. Inhibited by nilotinib, sorafenib, dabrafenib, rebastinib and vemurafenib. Selectively inhibited by N-(3)-((1H-Pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-5-yl)ethynyl)benzenesulfonamide compound 3h. Selectively inhibited by 1,2,3-triazole benzenesulfonamides.
Domain organisation. Recognizes stalled ribosomes via two separate and partially redundant sensor domains: the C-terminal domain (CTD) that binds the 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) and the sensing domain (S).
Similarity. Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily.

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 122 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
