Scientific Background: MAPKAPK3 is a protein-serine/threonine kinase that is a member of the CAMK group of protein kinases in the MAPKAPK family, and MAPKAPK subfamily. This kinase is highly expressed and widely distributed in most tested human tissues. MAPKAPK3 is activated by growth inducers and stress stimulation of cells. It can mediate cytokine production, cell migration, endocytosis, remodeling chromatin, and regulation of transcription. Some targets that MAPKAPK3 phosphorylate include HSP27/HSPB1, KRT18, KRT20, RCSD1, RPS6KA3, TAB3 and TTP/ZFP36. MAPKAPK3 interacts with TCF3 and with polycomb proteins, such as PCH2 and BMI1/PCGF4. MAPKAPK3 affinity to PCH2 can be increased with a K73M mutation. In vitro studies have demonstrated that ERK1/2, p38 MAP kinase and Jun N-terminal kinase were all able to phosphorylate and activate this kinase, which supports the role of MAPKAPK3 as an integrative element of signalling in both mitogen and stress responses. MAPKAPK3 might be a tumour suppressor protein (TSP). It is proposed to be deleted in some small cell lung cancers, but this remains to be proven in an in vivo (and not only cell line) model. MAPKAPK3 has also been linked with the development of glioblastoma multiforme (GM). However, the near absence of reported somatic mutations in this protein indicates that it may function as a tumour requiring protein (TRP) in many human tumours.
