Fluorescence spectroscopy measures yeast PAH1-encoded phosphatidate phosphatase interaction with liposome membranes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Phosphatidate (PA) phosphatase, the enzyme that catalyzes the penultimate step in triacylglycerol synthesis, is a cytosolic enzyme that must associate with the membrane where its substrate PA resides.

CK2α Deficiency Drives Myocardial Fibrosis via Desmin‐Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CK2α preserves mitochondrial homeostasis by phosphorylating Desmin to recruit Cryab, ensuring proper filament assembly. CK2α deficiency disrupts this interaction, causing mitochondrial dysfunction, metabolic shifts, bioenergetic failure, and oxidative stress—ultimately establishing a pro‐fibrotic environment that drives cardiac fibrosis.

M‐phase‐specific cdc2 protein kinase phosphorylates the β subunit of casein kinase II and increases casein kinase II activity [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1990
The M‐phase‐specific cdc2 (cell division control) protein kinase (a component of the M‐phase‐promoting factor) was found to activate casein kinase II in vitro. The increase in casein kinase II activity ranged over 1.5–5‐fold. Increase in activity was prevented if ATP was replaced during the activation reaction by a non‐hydrolysable analogue.

Dynamic Single‐Binding Event Profiling With on‐Chip Microlenses for Wash‐Free Digital Biosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A microlens‐enhanced platform enables real‐time tracking and digital counting of single‐binding events using conventional bright‐field microscopy. Amplified scattering signals from gold nanoparticle labels and kinetic signature analysis allow wash‐free discrimination between specific and nonspecific interactions, while providing kinetic and mechanistic

Casein kinase II phosphorylates the synaptic vesicle protein p65

open access: yes, 1993
p65 (synaptotagmin), an abundant synaptic vesicle protein, has been implicated in the processes of vesicle docking and fusion. To characterize further the properties of this important neuronal protein, we have investigated its phosphorylation in vitro ...

CK2.1, a bone morphogenetic protein receptor type Ia mimetic peptide, repairs cartilage in mice with destabilized medial meniscus

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2017
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee involves degeneration of articular cartilage of the diarthrodial joints. Current treatment options temporarily relieve the joint pain but do not restore the lost cartilage.

Histone H3K18 Lactylation Promotes the Malignant Progression of Wilms Tumor via a PSRC1/AKT/HIF‐1α Positive Feedback Loop

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In nephroblastoma, aberrant glycolysis drives lactate accumulation, which elevates histone H3K18 lactylation via p300. Lactylation of the PSRC1 promoter activates its transcription. PSRC1 competitively binds AKT, relieving PTEN‐mediated inhibition and triggering AKT/mTOR/HIF‐1α signaling.

The cDNAs coding for the α- and β-subunits of Xenopus laevis casein kinase II [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Using a λgt10 cDNA library obtained from Xenopus laevis oocytes and probes derived from the known sequences of the human and Drosophila genes, a cDNA coding for the α-subunit of the X. laevis casein kinase II was isolated.

Nuclear factor of activated T cells as a driver of tumor progression and a target for precision therapy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Overview illustration of dysregulated NFAT activation coordinating upstream signaling, post‐translational regulation and cancer promoting pathways to induce abnormal gene expression that drives tumor development, progression and immune escape. Abstract The Nuclear Factor of Activated T Cells (NFAT) family comprises closely related transcription factors.
