A) What type of regulatory enzyme is this? B) In what general type of cellular pathway does this enzyme participate? C) Which form of the enzyme is active – ERK2 or ERK2-P2? D) What does "P2" stand for? E) Ultimately (meaning "finally") what is the ultimate effect on cellular metabolism due to activation of thi enzyme?

Expert Solution

Step 1
In the above diagram, the N-terminal domain(residues 1–109 and 320–358) is made up of strands (green) largely and two helices, (magenta) and C(blue).
The C-terminal domain (residues 110-319) is mostly helical (blue), has phosphorylation lip (red) and the MAP kinase insertion (magenta).
Also, the side chains Thr-183, p-Tyr-183, Tyr-185 and p-Tyr-185 can be seen.
