Comment

Ribosomal S6 kinase 90 kDa serine/threonine kinases, also known as p90^rsk or MAPK-activated protein kinase-1 (MAPKAP-K1), are activated by MAP kinase -mediated phosphorylation. RSK protein kinases are also activated by phosphorylation by TORC1 [1,4] and PDK1 [3]. Substrates include ribosomal S6 protein (RPS6, P62753), GS3β (P49841) [8]) and the 5HT_2A receptor [7].
