MAP2K1. also known as MEK1. is a dual-specificity kinase within the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway, playing a central role in regulating cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. As a critical intermediary between RAF kinases and ERK1/2. MAP2K1 activates ERK through phosphorylation, transmitting extracellular signals (e.g., growth factors, cytokines) to nuclear transcription factors. Dysregulation of MAP2K1 is frequently implicated in cancers, particularly those with RAS/RAF mutations, making it a key therapeutic target.
Recombinant MAP2K1 proteins are engineered using expression systems like *E. coli* or mammalian cells to produce functional, purified kinase for research and drug discovery. These proteins typically retain catalytic activity and structural features, including conserved kinase domains (e.g., ATP-binding site) and regulatory motifs. Tagged variants (e.g., His-tag, GST-tag) facilitate purification and detection. Recombinant MAP2K1 enables *in vitro* studies of kinase activation mechanisms, substrate interactions, and inhibitor screening. MEK inhibitors like trametinib, derived from such research, are clinically used to treat BRAF-mutant cancers. Additionally, recombinant MAP2K1 supports structural biology (e.g., crystallography) to elucidate binding interfaces and design selective drugs. Its production requires optimization to maintain solubility and post-translational modification fidelity, ensuring relevance to physiological conditions.
