Function The ANPs-MKK6-MPK4 module is involved in the regulation of plant cytokinesis during meiosis and mitosis. Essential to promote the progression of cytokinesis and for cellularization (formation of the cell plate) during male-specific meiotic. Involved in cortical microtubules organization and stabilization by regulating the phosphorylation state of microtubule-associated proteins such as MAP65-1. Involved in root hair development process. Negative regulator of systemic acquired resistance (SAR) and salicylic acid- (SA) mediated defense response. Required for jasmonic acid- (JA) mediated defense gene expression. May regulate activity of transcription factor controlling pathogenesis-related (PR) gene expression. Seems to act independently of the SAR regulatory protein NPR1 (Nonexpresser of PR1). Phosphorylates MKS1 and transcription factors WRKY25 and WRKY33. The MEKK1, MKK1/MKK2 and MPK4 function in a signaling pathway that modulates the expression of genes responding to biotic and abioti

<B>Immunoblotting</B><BR/>Arabidopsis thaliana whole leaf extracts (Lanes A, F), seedlings (Lanes B, E), flowers (Lane C) and roots (Lane D) were separated on SDS-PAGE and blotted with Rabbit Anti-AtMPK4 (<B>Cat. No. A6979</B>). The antibody was developed with Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG, Peroxidase conjugate (<B>Cat. No. A0545</B>) and a chemiluminescent substrate.<BR/>Antibody concentration 1.0 μg/mL<BR/>Specificity is demonstrated by inhibition of antibody staining of whole leaf extract with the AtMPK4 immunizing peptide (20 μg/mL, Lane F).
