General annotation (Comments)

Function	Implicated in the relay of the cAMP chemotactic signal and cell differentiation. Important for receptor-mediated activation of adenylyl cyclase.
Catalytic activity	ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein.
Cofactor	Magnesium By similarity.
Enzyme regulation	Activated by tyrosine and threonine phosphorylation By similarity.
Domain	The TXY motif contains the threonine and tyrosine residues whose phosphorylation activates the MAP kinases By similarity.
Post-translational modification	Dually phosphorylated on Thr-176 and Tyr-178, which activates the enzyme By similarity.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. CMGC Ser/Thr protein kinase family. MAP kinase subfamily. Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
