Human TPX2 is required for targeting Aurora-A kinase to the spindle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Aurora-A is a serine-threonine kinase implicated in the assembly and maintenance of the mitotic spindle. Here we show that human Aurora-A binds to TPX2, a prominent component of the spindle apparatus.

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Arabidopsis STN7 Kinase Provides a Link between Short- and Long-Term Photosynthetic Acclimation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Flowering plants control energy allocation to their photosystems in response to light quality changes. This includes the phosphorylation and migration of light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) proteins (state transitions or short-term response) as well as ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

Molecular Characterization of the Dbf4/Drf1-Dependent Kinase (DDK) and the DNA Replication Checkpoint Mediator Claspin in Xenopus Egg Extracts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The integrity of DNA replication control and checkpoint mechanisms is essential for preventing tumorigenesis. DNA replication is initiated by the S-CDK and DDK kinases which mediate the unwinding of the replication fork.

Developmental programmes drive cellular plasticity, disease progression and therapy resistance in lung adenocarcinoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study shows that lung adenocarcinomas exploit developmental branching morphogenesis to acquire a therapy resistant basal‐like tumour cell state. This process was found to be regulated by combined TP53 loss‐of‐function and type‐I interferon signalling, identifying a novel axis for biomarker and therapeutic target discovery.

Functional characterization of human NDR kinases : novel regulatory mechanisms and a path towards direct substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Protein kinases are important regulators of signal transduction pathways in both unicellular and multicellular organisms. They play critical roles in biological processes such as cell growth, division, differentiation, adhesion, motility and cell death ...

The C-terminal V5 domain of Protein Kinase Cα is intrinsically disordered, with propensity to associate with a membrane mimetic.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The C-terminal V5 domain is one of the most variable domains in Protein Kinase C isoforms (PKCs). V5 confers isoform specificity on its parent enzyme through interactions with isoform-specific adaptor proteins and possibly through specific intra ...

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Saxagliptin but Not Sitagliptin Inhibits CaMKII and PKC via DPP9 Inhibition in Cardiomyocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Some oral anti-hyperglycemic drugs, including gliptins that inhibit dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4), have been linked to the increased risk of heart failure (HF) in type-2 diabetic patients.
