Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information MEKK1 containing residues 1-719 interacts with wild-type RhoA. MEKK1 (149-636) also associates with wild-type RhoA in yeast. The constitutively active mutant of RhoA, RhoAL63, also binds to residues 149-636, whereas the inactive mutant RhoAN19 fails to bind any of the MEKK1 fragments. Interaction between RhoA and MEKK1 seems to be activation-dependent (GTP-binding dependent) in yeast Mus musculus
additional information RhoA L63, the active mutant of RhoA, dramatically stimulates the activity of endogenous MEKK1, whereas RhoA wild-type and RhoA N19, a dominant negative mutant of RhoA, show little activation effect Homo sapiens
additional information stimulation of MEKK1 kinase activity by RhoA in vitro synthetic construct
