MEKK3 is a Ser/Thr protein kinase belonging to the MAP/ERK kinase kinase family (1). Closely related to MEKK2, MEKK3 is expressed in a multitude of tissues. MEKK3 directly regulates SAPKs and ERKs pathway via SEK and MEK1, respectively but not the p38 pathway (2) and is also involved in the NF-kB pathway (3). MEKK3 as well as MEKK2 bind, phosphorylate and activate MEK5 through their PB1 domain (4). hKSR-2 (human kinase suppressor of ras-2) has been shown to regulate the activity of MEKK3 (5).
