Biological function

Dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MAP2K1; MEK1/MKK1) is a dual-specificity kinase in the RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK pathway. It phosphorylates and activates ERK1/ERK2, coupling upstream growth-factor signals to cellular proliferation, differentiation and survival programs.

Research context

MAP2K1 (MEK1/MKK1) is studied in RAS-RAF-MEK-ERK signalling, growth-factor responses, proliferation, differentiation and cancer biology. Use the catalogue filters below to compare ABMIUM MAP2K1 reagents and confirm product-level suitability before use.
