Expression of N-methyl d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor-dependent homosynaptic long term depression at synapses in the hippocampus and neocortex requires the persistent dephosphorylation of postsynaptic protein kinase A substrates. An attractive mechanism for

Postsynaptic densities (PSD) are a network of proteins located on the internal surface of excitatory synapses just inside the postsynaptic membrane. Enzymes associated with the PSD are optimally positioned to respond to signals transduced across the ...

Protein kinase A activity and anchoring are required for ovarian cancer cell migration and invasion. [PDF]
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is the deadliest of the gynecological malignancies, due in part to its clinically occult metastasis. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms governing EOC dissemination and invasion may provide new targets for ...

Control of PKA stability and signalling by RING ligase praja2 [PDF]
Ligand-mediated activation of G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) mobilises compartmentalised pulses of second messengers like cAMP. The main cellular effector of cAMP is Protein Kinase A (PKA) which is assembled as inactive holoenzyme consisting of two ...

Intrinsic disorder within an AKAP-protein kinase A complex guides local substrate phosphorylation
Anchoring proteins sequester kinases with their substrates to locally disseminate intracellular signals and avert indiscriminate transmission of these responses throughout the cell.

A-Kinase Anchoring Proteins: From protein complexes to physiology and disease
Protein scaffold complexes are a key mechanism by which a common signaling pathway can serve many different functions. Sequestering a signaling enzyme to a specific subcellular environment not only ensures that the enzyme is near its relevant targets ...

RACK(1) to the future – a historical perspective [PDF]
This perspective summarises the first and long overdue RACK1 meeting held at the University of Limerick, Ireland, May 2013, in which RACK1’s role in the immune system, the heart and the brain were discussed and its contribution to disease states such as ...

Interacting protein kinases involved in the regulation of flagellar length [PDF]
A striking difference of the life stages of the protozoan parasite Leishmania is a long flagellum in the insect stage promastigotes and a rudimentary organelle in the mammalian amastigotes.

Background Tumor heterogeneity in breast cancer tumors is today widely recognized. Most of the available knowledge in genetic variation however, relates to the primary tumor while metastatic lesions are much less studied.

A novel protein kinase-like domain in a selenoprotein, widespread in the tree of life. [PDF]
Selenoproteins serve important functions in many organisms, usually providing essential oxidoreductase enzymatic activity, often for defense against toxic xenobiotic substances.
