Background
ASK1(Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1) is also named as MAP3K5, MAPKKK5, MEKK5 and belongs to the MAP kinase kinase kinase subfamily. It is an evolutionarily conserved mitogen activated protein 3-kinase that activates both Jnk and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases. ASK1 is activated in response to various cytotoxic stresses including TNF, Fas and reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as H2O2, and activates c-Jun NH 2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38.Serine/threonine kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway. Plays an important role in the cascades of cellular responses evoked by changes in the environment. Mediates signaling for determination of cell fate such as differentiation and survival. Plays a crucial role in the apoptosis signal transduction pathway through mitochondria-dependent caspase activation. MAP3K5/ASK1 is required for the innate immune response, which is essential for host defense against a wide range of pathogens. Mediates signal transduction of various stressors like oxidative stress as well as by receptor-mediated inflammatory signals, such as the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) or lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
