Human Gene MAP3K13 (ENST00000446828.5) from GENCODE V44
Description: Homo sapiens mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 13 (MAP3K13), transcript variant 3, mRNA. (from RefSeq NM_001242317) RefSeq Summary (NM_001242317): The protein encoded by this gene is a member of serine/threonine protein kinase family. This kinase contains a dual leucine-zipper motif, and has been shown to form dimers/oligomers through its leucine-zipper motif. This kinase can phosphorylate and activate MAPK8/JNK, MAP2K7/MKK7, which suggests a role in the JNK signaling pathway. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. Gencode Transcript: ENST00000446828.5 Gencode Gene: ENSG00000073803.14 Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg38 chr3:185,282,953-185,482,749 Size: 199,797 Total Exon Count: 13 Strand: + Coding Region Position: hg38 chr3:185,285,606-185,482,456 Size: 196,851 Coding Exon Count: 12
ID:M3K13_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 13; EC=2.7.11.25; AltName: Full=Leucine zipper-bearing kinase; AltName: Full=Mixed lineage kinase; Short=MLK; FUNCTION: Activates the JUN N-terminal pathway through activation of the MAP kinase kinase MAP2K7. Acts synergistically with PRDX3 to regulate the activation of NF-kappa-B in the cytosol. This activation is kinase-dependent and involves activating the IKK complex, the IKBKB-containing complex that phosphorylates inhibitors of NF-kappa-B. CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein. COFACTOR: Magnesium (By similarity). ENZYME REGULATION: Activated by autophosphorylation and homodimerization. SUBUNIT: Homodimer; forms dimers through the leucine-zipper motif. Interacts with the C-terminus of MAPK8IP1 through the kinase catalytic domain. Binds PRDX3. Associates with the IKK complex through the kinase domain. INTERACTION: Self; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-1168480, EBI-1168480; SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the adult brain, liver, placenta and pancreas, with expression strongest in the pancreas. PTM: Autophosphorylated on serine and threonine residues. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. STE Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily. SIMILARITY: Contains 1 protein kinase domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAI11727.1; Type=Erroneous translation; Note=Wrong choice of CDS; Sequence=BAG59505.1; Type=Erroneous termination; Positions=740; Note=Translated as Tyr;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
