Mapk7 is an important component in the neurobiology of neurodegenerative diseases. This page provides detailed information about its structure, function, and role in disease processes.
MAPK7 (ERK5) is a MAP kinase with roles in cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. It is activated by growth factors and stress. In the brain, MAPK7 is important for neuronal development, synaptic plasticity, and memory formation.
