Background: PRAK (p38-regulated/activated kinase), also referred to as mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) -activated protein kinase (MAPKAPK) -5, is a ubiquitously expressed serine/threonine kinase regulated by p38å and p38ß MAP kinases. Activated JNK, p38g or p38∂ are unable to induce phosphorylation of PRAK in vitro. Phosphorylation of PRAK occurs in vivo in response to p38 activation by stress-related extracellular stimuli including UV light, oxidation and proinflammatory cytokines. Two other substrates for p38, MAPKAPK-2 and MAPKAPK-3/3pK, share approximately 45% sequence homology with PRAK including the phosphorylation motif recognized by p38, Lys-X-Thr-Pro. Activated PRAK has been shown to specifically phosphorylate HSP 27 in vitro, suggesting that the protein may play a role in stress-induced small heat shock protein phosphorylation in vivo.
