Enzyme
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions, the molecules at the beginning of the process, called substrates, are converted into different molecules, called products. Almost all chemical reactions in a biological cell need enzymes in order to occur at rates...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Interactions
MAPKAPK2 has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...
with MAPK14
MAPK14
Mitogen-activated protein kinase 14, also called p38-α, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MAPK14 gene.-Interactions:MAPK14 has been shown to interact with Casein kinase 2, alpha 1, RPS6KA4, MAPKAPK2, CDC25B, DUSP1, ZFP36L1, CDC25C, MAPKAPK3, Activating transcription factor 2, MAPK1,...
, AKT1
AKT1
RAC-alpha serine/threonine-protein kinase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the AKT1 gene. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.- Function :...

PHC2
Polyhomeotic-like protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PHC2 gene.-Interactions:PHC2 has been shown to interact with MAPKAPK2, PHC1, BMI1 and MCRS1.-Further reading:...
and SHC1
SHC1
SHC-transforming protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SHC1 gene. SHC has been found to be important in the regulation of apoptosis and drug resistance in mammalian cells....
