DESCRIPTION

Also known as JIP1_MOUSE, Mapk8ip1, Ib1, Jip1, Mapk8ip, Prkm8ip. The JNK-interacting protein (JIP) group of scaffold proteins selectively mediates JNK signaling by aggregating specific components of the MAPK cascade to form a functional JNK signaling module. Required for JNK activation in response to excitotoxic stress. Cytoplasmic MAPK8IP1 causes inhibition of JNK-regulated activity by retaining JNK in the cytoplasm and thus inhibiting the JNK phosphorylation of c-Jun. May also participate in ApoER2-specific reelin signaling. Directly, or indirectly, regulates GLUT2 gene expression and beta-cell function. Appears to have a role in cell signaling in mature and developing nerve terminals. May function as a regulator of vesicle transport, through interactions with the JNK-signaling components and motor proteins. Functions as an anti-apoptotic protein and whose level seems to influence the beta-cell death or survival response (By similarity). Acts as a scaffold protein that coordinates with SH3RF1 in organizing different components of the JNK pathway, including RAC1 or RAC2, MAP3K11/MLK3 or MAP3K7/TAK1, MAP2K7/MKK7, MAPK8/JNK1 and/or MAPK9/JNK2 into a functional multiprotein complex to ensure the effective activation of the JNK signaling pathway. Regulates the activation of MAPK8/JNK1 and differentiation of CD8(+) T-cells (PubMed:23963642). Forms homo- or heterooligomeric complexes. Binds specific components of the JNK signaling pathway namely MAPK8/JNK1, MAPK9/JNK2, MAPK10/JNK3, MAP2K7/MKK7, MAP3K11/MLK3 and DLK1. Also binds the proline-rich domain-containing splice variant of apolipoprotein E receptor 2 (ApoER2) (By similarity). Binds the cytoplasmic tails of LRP1 and LRP2 (Megalin). Binds the TPR motif-containing C-terminal of kinesin light chain, KLC1. Pre-assembled MAPK8IP1 scaffolding complexes are then transported as a cargo of kinesin, to the required subcellular location. Interacts with the cytoplasmic domain of APP (By similarity). Interacts, via the PID domain, with ARHGEF28. Interacts with MAP3K7/TAK1 and VRK2 (By similarity). Interacts with DCLK2 (PubMed:16628014). Found in a complex with SH3RF1, RAC1, MAP3K11/MLK3, MAP2K7/MKK7 and MAPK8/JNK1 (PubMed:23963642). Found in a complex with SH3RF1, RAC2, MAP3K7/TAK1, MAP2K7/MKK7, MAPK8/JNK1 and MAPK9/JNK2 (PubMed:27084103). Interacts with SH3RF2 (By similarity).
