MEK1 and MEK2, also known as MAP2K1 and MAP2K2, are activated in response to mitogenic stimuli. Activation occurs through dual phosphorylation at S218/S222 of MEK1 and S222/S226 of MEK2 by several upstream MAP3Ks. Both MEK1 and MEK2 are dual-specificity protein kinases, phosphorylating and activating ERK1 and ERK2 at Thr and Tyr positions.

Product Specifications
Immunogen
Synthetic peptide (coupled with KLH) derived from aminoacid sequence 33-53 of human MAPK Kinase 1. The immunogen sequence is highly conserved within species (human, mouse, rat, hamster, bovine etc.).
Specificity
The polyclonal antibody reacts with intracellular antigens MEK 1/2. MEK 1 and MEK 2 are integral components of the MAP kinase cascade, an important pathway for cell growth and differentiation.
