In proliferating cells, p-S189 MAPK6 and pS-186 MAPK4 bind to the MAPK effector kinase MAPKAPK5 (also known as MK5) through an FRIEDE motif in the C-terminal region (Perander et al, 2008; Deleris et al, 2008; Aberg et al, 2009). This motif, which is unique to MAPK6 and MAPK4 binds to the C-terminal 50 residues of MAPKAKP5 and is required for both the cytoplasmic accumulation and the activation of MAPKAPK5 (Aberg et al, 2009; Aberg et al, 2006; Seternes et al, 2004; Deleris et al, 2008). Cytoplasmic redistribution of MAPKAPK5 depends on the protein-protein interaction with MAPK6 or 4 and not the activity of any of the kinases, as cytoplasmic localization is abrogated by disruption of the interaction interface but not by kinase-dead versions of MAPK6, 4 or MAPKAPK5 itself (Aberg et al, 2006; Seternes et al, 2004).
