"Cot proteins were used in an in vitro kinase assay using mek as a substrate. Samples were analyzed by western blotting. As seen in the cascade activity assay only wild-type cot was active against mekregulation of cot is of great interest to the signaling field since the cot/mek/erk pathway potentially plays a role in the etiology of inflammatory autoimmune diseases."
"Among other effectors, active ras binds and activates the raf kinase, iniziating a kinase cascade involving serine phosporylation of mek1/2 (mapkk) and tyrosine and threonine phosphorylation of erk1/2 active raf phosphorylates mek phospholpeptide analysis demostrated that serine residues 218 and 222 of human mek1 are the primary sites for phosphorylation by c-raf."
