Gene Information

human ... MAP3K5(4217)

General description

Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a serine/threonine protein kinase. It belongs to the MAPKKK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) family. This gene is located on human chromosome 6q23.
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 5 (MAP3K5), also known as apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1), is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 6q22.33. The encoded protein belongs to the mitogen-activated protein kinase family. Porcine MAP3K5, which shares 97 % sequence identity with human MAP3K5, is characterized with a domain of unknown function (DUF4071) and a protein kinase domain.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human ASK1 around the phosphorylation site of Ser966.

Immunogen Range: 932-981

Application

Anti-phospho-ASK1 (pSer966) antibody has been used in western blotting.
Anti-phospho-ASK1 (pSer966) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblot analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is linked with apoptosis in cancer and heart tissues. It act as an upstream regulator of p38 and JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) in cardiomyocytes death. Mutations in MAP3K5 gene result in β-thalassemia disease severity and hydroxyurea treatment efficacy.
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 5 (MAP3K5), is one of the vital genes involved in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade, which plays a crucial role in the cytoplasmic transduction of extracellular signals. Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)-dependent mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, activated by 4SC-202, which is a novel class I HDAC inhibitor (HDACi), potentially stops hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell proliferation. The encoded protein in response to oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, infection and calcium influx plays a vital role in intracellular signaling pathways and biological functions including cell death, differentiation and inflammation. Genomic variation in MAP3K5 indicates β-thalassemia disease severity and hydroxyurea (HU) treatment efficiency. ASK1 plays a vital role in inhibition of the adipocytic differentiation process of the tumor cells and functions as an efficient therapeutic target for several human diseases including malignant fibrous histiocytomas.

Malignant fibrous histiocytomas (MFHs) are aggressive tumors without any definable line of differentiation. We recently demonstrated that about 20% of them are characterized by high-level amplifications of the 12q14-q15 chromosome region, associated with either 1p32 or 6q23 band amplification. This
