Entrez Gene Summary | Protein kinase activation is a frequent response of cells to treatment with growth factors, chemicals, heat shock, or apoptosis-inducing agents. This protein kinase activation presumably allows cells to resist unfavorable environmental conditions. The yeast sterile 20 (Ste20) kinase acts upstream of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade that is activated under a variety of stress conditions. MST2 was identified as a kinase that is activated by the proapoptotic agents straurosporine and FAS ligand (MIM 134638) (Taylor et al., 1996 [PubMed 8816758]; Lee et al., 2001 [PubMed 11278283]).[supplied by OMIM] |

UniProt Summary | FUNCTION: SwissProt: Q13188 # Stress-activated, pro-apoptotic kinase which, following caspase-cleavage, enters the nucleus and induces chromatin condensation followed by internucleosomal DNA fragmentation. Phosphorylates TITF1 (By similarity). Phosphorylates and activates LATS1 and LATS2. COFACTOR: Magnesium. SIZE: 491 amino acids; 56301 Da SUBUNIT: Homodimer; mediated via the coiled-coil region. Interacts with NORE1, which inhibits autoactivation (By similarity). Interacts with and stabilizes SAV1. Interacts with RAF1, which prevents dimerization and phosphorylation. Interacts with RASSF1, which leads to enzyme activation. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity). Nucleus (By similarity). Note=The caspase-cleaved form cycles between nucleus and cytoplasm (By similarity). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed at high levels in adult kidney, skeletal and placenta tissues and at very low levels in adult heart, lung and brain tissues. SIMILARITY: SwissProt: Q13188 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. STE20 subfamily. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain. & Contains 1 SARAH domain. |
