MAPKAPK5 (PRAK) is activated in response to cellular stress and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Activity of this kinase is regulated by p38 alpha and p38 beta. The protein encoded by PRAK is a member of the serine/threonine kinase family. In response to cellular stress and proinflammatory cytokines, this kinase is activated through its phosphorylation by MAP kinases including MAPK1/ERK, MAPK14/p38-alpha, and MAPK11/p38-beta. In vitro, this kinase phosphorylates heat shock protein HSP27 at its physiologically relevant sites. Two alternately spliced transcript variants of PRAK encoding distinct isoforms have been reported.
