Function

Atypical MAPK protein that regulates several process such as autophagy, ciliogenesis, protein trafficking/secretion and genome integrity, in a kinase activity-dependent manner (PubMed:22948227, PubMed:24618899, PubMed:29021280, PubMed:21847093, PubMed:20733054). Controls both, basal and starvation-induced autophagy throught its interaction with GABARAP, MAP1LC3B and GABARAPL1 leading to autophagosome formation, SQSTM1 degradation and reduced MAP1LC3B inhibitory phosphorylation (PubMed:22948227). Regulates primary cilium formation and the localization of ciliary proteins involved in cilium structure, transport, and signaling (PubMed:29021280). Prevents the relocation of the sugar-adding enzymes from the Golgi to the endoplasmic reticulum, thereby restricting the production of sugar-coated proteins (PubMed:24618899). Upon amino-acid starvation, mediates transitional endoplasmic reticulum site disassembly and inhibition of secretion (PubMed:21847093). Binds to chromatin leading to MAPK15 activation and interaction with PCNA, that which protects genomic integrity by inhibiting MDM2-mediated degradation of PCNA (PubMed:20733054). Regulates DA transporter (DAT) activity and protein expression via activation of RhoA (PubMed:28842414). In response to H(2)O(2) treatment phosphorylates ELAVL1, thus preventing it from binding to the PDCD4 3'UTR and rendering the PDCD4 mRNA accessible to miR-21 and leading to its degradation and loss of protein expression (PubMed:26595526). Also functions in a kinase activity-independent manner as a negative regulator of growth (By similarity). Phosphorylates in vitro FOS and MBP (PubMed:11875070, PubMed:16484222, PubMed:20638370, PubMed:19166846). During oocyte maturation, plays a key role in the microtubule organization and meiotic cell cycle progression in oocytes, fertilized eggs, and early embryos (By similarity). Interacts with ESRRA promoting its re-localization from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and then prevents its transcriptional activity (PubMed:21190936).

Supplementary info

Activity summary

ERK8 also known as MAPK15 is a serine/threonine kinase with a molecular weight of approximately 49 kDa. It has an important role in cellular signaling pathways. This protein is involved in the regulation of several cellular processes including growth proliferation and survival. ERK8 is expressed in various tissues with notable expression in the brain lung and liver. Due to its broad expression profile it holds importance in understanding diverse physiological and pathological contexts.

Biological function summary

ERK8 engages in the regulation of cellular processes by modulating the activity of downstream targets. It is part of the Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) family which typically functions in concert with other proteins to form signaling complexes. These complexes carry out phosphorylation events that are important for signaling transduction. ERK8 affects cell motility cytoskeletal rearrangements and transcriptional regulation impacting processes critical for cellular homeostasis and response to stress.

Pathways

ERK8 is involved in signaling pathways including the MAPK/ERK pathway and the PI3K/AKT pathway. Within these pathways ERK8 interacts closely with proteins such as RAF and MEK facilitating the transmission of extracellular signals to intracellular responses. Its role in the MAPK/ERK pathway is particularly significant given the pathway's influence on cellular proliferation and differentiation. ERK8's interaction with these pathways emphasizes its contribution to controlling cellular responses and adapting to environmental changes.

Associated diseases and disorders

ERK8's functions relate to cancer and metabolic disorders. Its aberrant activity is associated with tumor progression as it can influence processes like cell proliferation and evasion of apoptosis. In the context of cancer ERK8 can interact with proteins like c-Jun a component of the AP-1 transcription factor complex to promote oncogenic transformations. Additionally ERK8 is implicated in metabolic disorders through its role in regulating glucose metabolism and insulin signaling making it a potential target for therapeutic intervention in diseases like diabetes.
