Therapeutic Target Details

Target ID: T14
Target Name: Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 5
Synonyms: MAP3K5; MAPK/ERK kinase kinase 5; MEK kinase 5; MEKK 5
GENE: MAP3K5
Action: inhibitor
Class: Enzyme
UniProtKB ID:Q99683
Entry Name: M3K5_HUMAN
Related Drugs: Selonsertib
Mechanism: CASP8 and FADD-like apoptosis regulator (CFLAR) as a key suppressor of steatohepatitis and indicate that the development of CFLAR-peptide-mimicking drugs and the screening of small-molecular inhibitors that specifically block ASK1 dimerization are new and feasible approaches for NASH treatment.
