Scope note: Sistema de señalización intracelular que implica a las cascadas de proteína-cinasas activadas por mitógenos (cascadas de tres miembros de proteína-cinasas). Diversos activadores previos, que actúan en respuesta a estímulos extracelulares, desencadenan la cascada mediante la activación del primero de los miembros de la misma, MAP-CINASA-CINASA-CINASAS (MAPKKK). Las MAPKKK activadas fosforilan las CINASAS DE PROTEÍNA-CINASAS ACTIVADAS POR MITÓGENOS que, a su vez, fosforilan las PROTEÍNA-CINASAS ACTIVADAS POR MITÓGENOS (MAPK). A continuación, las MAPK actúan sobre diversas dianas ulteriores para afectar a la expresión génica. En los mamíferos, existen varias vías de MAPK diferentes, como la vía de ERK (cinasa regulada por señales extracelulares), la vía de SAPK/JNK (proteína-cinasa activada por el estrés/cinasa c-jun) y la vía de la cinasa p38. Entre estas vías existen algunos componentes compartidos, dependiendo del tipo de estímulo que origina la activación de la cascada.

Scope note: An intracellular signaling system involving the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades (three-membered protein kinase cascades). Various upstream activators, which act in response to extracellular stimuli, trigger the cascades by activating the first member of a cascade, MAP KINASE KINASE KINASES; (MAPKKKs). Activated MAPKKKs phosphorylate MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE KINASES which in turn phosphorylate the MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASES; (MAPKs). The MAPKs then act on various downstream targets to affect gene expression. In mammals, there are several distinct MAP kinase pathways including the ERK (extracellular signal-regulated kinase) pathway, the SAPK/JNK (stress-activated protein kinase/c-jun kinase) pathway, and the p38 kinase pathway. There is some sharing of components among the pathways depending on which stimulus originates activation of the cascade.
