p38 MAP kinase (MAPK), also called RK, CSBP, and SAPK2a, is the mammalian orthologue of the yeast HOG kinase. This family of kinases participates in signaling cascades that control cellular responses to cytokines and stress. Four isoforms of p38 MAPK (α,β,γ,δ) have been identified. Similar to the SAPK/JNK pathway, p38 MAPK is activated by a variety of cellular stresses including osmotic shock, inflammatory cytokines, lipopolysaccharides, UV light, and growth factors. MKK3 and SEK activate p38 MAPK by dual phosphorylation at threonine 180 and tyrosine 182. Activated p38 MAPK has been shown to phosphorylate and activate MAPKAP kinase 2 and to phosphorylate the transcription factors ATF-2, Max and MEF2.

Western blot analysis of A431 cells serum starved overnight (lanes 1 & 3) or treated with pervanadate (1 mM) for 30 minutes (lanes 2 & 4). The blot was probed with anti-p38α (lanes 1 & 2) or anti-p38 (T180/Y182) (lanes 3-4). Lanes 5-7 shows a blot of A431 cells treated with pervanadate and probed with anti-p38 (T180/Y182) in the presence of no peptide (lane 5), phospho-ERK1 (T202/Y204) peptide (lane 6) or phospho-p38 (T180/Y182) peptide (lane 7).
Immunocytochemical labeling of activated p38 MAPK in pervanadate-treated mouse C2C12. The cells were labeled with mouse monoclonal p38α MAPK and p38 MAPK (T180/Y182) antibodies, then the antibodies were detected using appropriate secondary antibodies conjugated to Cy3.
