CC -!- FUNCTION: Serine/threonine-protein kinase which, by phosphorylating and
CC activating mek-1, plays an important role in the activation of the JNK
CC pathway composed of mlk-1, mek-1 and kgb-1 (PubMed:15116070,
CC PubMed:20008556). Involved in the response to environmental stress such
CC as heavy metals (PubMed:15116070, PubMed:18809575). By activating the
CC JNK pathway downstream of tyrosine receptor svh-2, plays a role in axon
CC regeneration after injury (PubMed:21670305, PubMed:23072806,
CC PubMed:22388962). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15116070,

CC (PubMed:20008556). May be activated by svh-2-mediated phosphorylation
CC (PubMed:23072806, PubMed:22388962). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20008556,

CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with max-2; the interaction is independent of max-2
CC and mlk-1 kinase activities (PubMed:20008556). May interact (via NPQY
CC motif when phosphorylated on tyrosine residue) with shc-1 (via PID
CC domain); the interaction may facilitate mek-1 phosphorylation by
CC bringing mlk-1 and mek-1 together (PubMed:18809575). Interacts with
CC svh-2 (via cytoplasmic domain) (PubMed:22388962). Interacts with tpa-1
