immunoprecipitated MAP3K8 TPL-2 could directly phosphorylate and activate both MEK-1 and MKK4
(also known as SEK-1) in vitro. TPL-2
expression is essential for LPS activation of MEK-1???2 and
ERK-1???2 in macrophages
PMID:22435554, PMID:15169888
In unstimulated cells, TPL-2 is con???ned to a cytoplasmic complex with
the NF-jB1 precursor protein p105, and the ubiquitin-binding protein ABIN-2.
Interactions with both p105 and ABIN-2 are required to maintain
TPL-2 protein stability, while TPL-2 association with p105 also inhibits TPL-2 phosphorylation of its substrates MEK-1???2
