Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Serine/threonine kinase activity**: MAP4K2 possesses serine/threonine kinase activity, allowing it to phosphorylate and regulate the activity of downstream targets. 2. **MAP kinase kinase kinase kinase activity**: MAP4K2 is a member of the MAP kinase kinase kinase kinase family, which is involved in the regulation of multiple signaling pathways. 3. **High expression in immune cells**: MAP4K2 is highly expressed in cells of the immune system, including B cells, T cells, and germinal center B cells. 4. **Expression in neural cells**: MAP4K2 is also expressed in cells of the nervous system, including GABAergic interneurons and radial glial cells. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **JNK cascade**: MAP4K2 is involved in the regulation of the JNK cascade, a signaling pathway that plays a critical role in cell survival, differentiation, and apoptosis. 2. **Regulation of Jun kinase activity**: MAP4K2 regulates the activity of Jun kinase, a transcription factor that plays a key role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. 3. **Innate immune response**: MAP4K2 is involved in the regulation of the innate immune response, including the activation of immune cells and the production of cytokines. 4. **Vesicle targeting**: MAP4K2 is involved in the regulation of vesicle targeting and trafficking, which is critical for the delivery of proteins and lipids to specific cellular compartments. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Autoimmune diseases**: MAP4K2 may play a role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus, by regulating the activity of immune cells and the production of cytokines. 2. **Neurodegenerative disorders**: MAP4K2 may be involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease, by regulating the activity of neural cells and the production of neurotrophic factors. 3. **Cancer**: MAP4K2 may play a role in the development and progression of cancer by regulating the activity of cell signaling pathways and the production of growth factors. 4. **Therapeutic potential**: Targeting MAP4K2 may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. In conclusion, MAP4K2 is a multifaceted gene that plays a critical role in various cellular processes, including immune response, cell signaling, and vesicle targeting. Its clinical significance lies in its potential role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, and cancer. Further research is needed to fully understand the role of MAP4K2 in human disease and to explore its therapeutic potential.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
