Scientific Background: p38g (MAPK12, ERK6) is a protein-serine/threonine kinase of the CMGC group and p38 MAPK family. This kinase is moderate to highly expressed in most tested human tissues except in the pituitary, spinal cord and vagina, where it is notably absent. p38g is activated by phosphorylation at Y185 and probably T183. p38g is activated in response to stress. It has been linked with the development of inflammation, autoimmunity, diabetes and cancer. It functions as a signal transducer during myoblasts to myotubes differentiation. Enforced localization of p38g in the nucleus or cytoplasm markedly attenuates the ability of the kinase to induce cell cycle arrest in fibroblasts. p38g increases basal glucose uptake and decreases DNP- and contraction-stimulated glucose uptake, partially by affecting levels of glucose transporter expression in skeletal muscle. p38g overexpression is linked with highly metastatic breast cancer cell lines, and its expression is associated with the metastatic states of breast tumour samples. The gene was found to be deregulated in uterine leiomyoma. Loss of function may be important to confer survival and inhibit apoptosis for tumour cells.
