MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAPKAPK2 gene.This gene encodes a member of the Ser/Thr protein kinase family. This kinase is regulated through direct phosphorylation by p38 MAP kinase. In conjunction with p38 MAP kinase this kinase is known to be involved in many cellular processes including stress and inflammatory responses nuclear export gene expression regulation and cell proliferation.
