Background: MAP3K8/Tpl2/COT

COT is an oncogene that can activate both the MAP kinase and JNK kinase pathways. COT activates I kappaB kinases and induces the nuclear production of NF-kappa B. The C-terminal catalytic domain of KSR2 associates with COT and KSR2 can negatively regulate the kinase activity of COT in vitro. Co-transfection of KSR2 with COT in cells lead to reduced COT-mediated ERK activation and COT induced IL-8 production in a dose-dependent manner (1). COT is one of the MAP kinase kinase (MAPKK) kinases that regulates the ERK1/ERK2 pathway in response to IL-1. Blockage of expression of COT results in failure of IL-1 to induce an increase in IL 8 and MIP-1 beta mRNA levels (2).
