P38γ activation triggers dynamical changes in allosteric docking sites
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are serine-threonine kinases that participate in signal transduction pathways. p38 MAPKs have four isoforms (p38β, p38β, p38γ, and p38δ) which are involved in multiple cellular functions such as proliferation, differentiation, survival, and migration. MAPK k...
