Activity summary

The JNK protein family also known as c-Jun N-terminal kinases consists of JNK1 JNK2 and JNK3. These proteins are mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) that play a role in transmitting extracellular signals to the cell nucleus. JNK1 has a mass of approximately 54 kDa and is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues. JNK2 is similar in mass and expression while JNK3 is primarily found in the brain heart and testes. These proteins can phosphorylate transcription factors such as c-Jun impacting gene expression processes.

Biological function summary

The JNK proteins are involved in controlling cellular events like proliferation differentiation and apoptosis. They act as part of the MAPK signaling complex and involve scaffolding proteins that help organize these signaling pathways. In the cellular context JNK proteins are activated in response to stress signals like UV irradiation inflammatory cytokines and growth factors. This activation leads to diverse cellular outcomes depending on the specific JNK isoform and cell type.

Pathways

The JNK proteins are important in the MAPK signaling pathways and play a role in the AP-1 transcription factor regulation. They interact with proteins such as MEK4 and MEK7 which are upstream kinases that activate JNK through phosphorylation. The JNK signaling arm is distinct from the ERK and p38 MAPK pathways each having specific roles in cellular response modulation.

Associated diseases and disorders

The JNK proteins are implicated in conditions like neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. In Alzheimer's disease for example JNK3 contributes to neuronal cell death while JNK inhibitors like SP600125 have been explored for therapeutic potential. In cancer JNK proteins can influence tumor progression through the regulation of apoptosis and their activity may intersect with other kinases like p53 further complicating disease pathways. JNK's role in diseases makes it a critical target for developing inhibitors reflected in studies around compounds like JNK inhibitor 8 and related molecules.
