Anti-Human/Mouse MAP4K4 Polyclonal Antibody

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. This kinase has been shown to specifically activate MAPK8/JNK. The activation of MAPK8 by this kinase is found to be inhibited by the dominant-negative mutants of MAP3K7/TAK1, MAP2K4/MKK4, and MAP2K7/MKK7, which suggests that this kinase may function through the MAP3K7-MAP2K4-MAP2K7 kinase cascade, and mediate the TNF-alpha signaling pathway. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified. MAP4K4 (Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Kinase Kinase Kinase 4) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MAP4K4 include Theileriasis. Among its related pathways are Cellular Senescence and TGF-Beta Pathway. GO annotations related to this gene include transferase activity, transferring phosphorus-containing groups and protein tyrosine kinase activity. An important paralog of this gene is TNIK.
