Human Gene Set: BIOCARTA_PYK2_PATHWAY

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see BIOCARTA_PYK2_PATHWAY

Standard name BIOCARTA_PYK2_PATHWAY
Systematic name M7739
Brief description Links between Pyk2 and Map Kinases
Full description or abstract This diagram is a compilation of Pyk2 effort cascades. In specific cell types the receptor and effoectors will vary. Binding of a transmembrane receptor triggers the activation of Ca2+ signaling and PKC. The signal is then transmitted to Pyk2 and further to the small G protein Rac1. In turn, Rac1 initiatates the JNK cascade, starting with PAK follwed by MEKK1, SEK1, and JNK. JNK activation causes induction of c-Jun gene binding. Pyk2 stimulation has also been shown to activate MKK3 leading to activation of p38. The other major mitogen activated kinase cascade for ERK1/2 is stimulated via RAS, RAF and MEKK1/2.
