Function | Serine/threonine-protein kinase which acts as an essential component of the MAP kinase signal transduction pathway (PubMed:8643544). Acts as a MAPK kinase kinase kinase (MAP4K) and is an upstream activator of the stress-activated protein kinase/c-Jun N- terminal kinase (SAP/JNK) signaling pathway and to a lesser extent of the p38 MAPKs signaling pathway (By similarity). Required for the efficient activation of JNKs by TRAF6-dependent stimuli, including pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) such as polyinosine- polycytidine (poly(IC)), lipopolysaccharides (LPS), lipid A, peptidoglycan (PGN), or bacterial flagellin (By similarity). To a lesser degree, IL-1 and engagement of CD40 also stimulate MAP4K2- mediated JNKs activation (By similarity). The requirement for MAP4K2/GCK is most pronounced for LPS signaling, and extends to LPS stimulation of c-Jun phosphorylation and induction of IL-8 (By similarity). Enhances MAP3K1 oligomerization, which may relieve N- terminal mediated MAP3K1 autoinhibition and lead to activation following autophosphorylation (By similarity). Mediates also the SAP/JNK signaling pathway and the p38 MAPKs signaling pathway through activation of the MAP3Ks MAP3K10/MLK2 and MAP3K11/MLK3 (By similarity). May play a role in the regulation of vesicle targeting or fusion (By similarity). |
