MAP3K13 (Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 13) is a protein kinase, an enzyme that switches other proteins on by adding phosphate groups. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role. Tied to Skin cancer, Breast cancer, Lung cancer and 1 more.
Activates the JUN N-terminal pathway through activation of the MAP kinase kinase MAP2K7. Acts synergistically with PRDX3 to regulate the activation of NF-kappa-B in the cytosol. This activation is kinase-dependent and involves activating the IKK complex, the IKBKB-containing complex that phosphorylates inhibitors of NF-kappa-B.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.62 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.87, genetic association 0.00, somatic mutation 0.98).

No product in this corpus aims at MAP3K13 yet. Kinases are switched on by binding ATP inside the cell, so most drugs are small molecules shaped to plug that ATP pocket.
