[[Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase]] (MAP2K) are serine/threonine kinases which regulate various cellular activities in response to extracellular stimuli by mitogens, heat shock and more. MAP2K is part of the MAPK cascade which consists also of [[Mitogen-activated protein kinase|MAPK]] and [[Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase|MAP3K]] which are activated by phosphorylation.
