The dynamic organization of fungal acetyl-CoA carboxylase [PDF]
Acetyl-CoA carboxylases (ACCs) catalyse the committed step in fatty-acid biosynthesis: the ATP-dependent carboxylation of acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. They are important regulatory hubs for metabolic control and relevant drug targets for the treatment of ...

Functional characterization of the diatom cyclin-dependent kinase A2 as a mitotic regulator reveals plant-like properties in a non-green lineage [PDF]
Background: Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are crucial regulators of cell cycle progression in eukaryotes. The diatom CDKA2 was originally assigned to the classical A-type CDKs, but its cell cycle phase-specific transcription at the G2-to-M phase ...

New Cdc2 Tyr 4 phosphorylation by dsRNA‐activated protein kinase triggers Cdc2 polyubiquitination and G2 arrest under genotoxic stresses [PDF]
Cell division cycle 2 (Cdc2) protein is an essential subunit of M‐phase kinase (MPK), which has a key role in G2/M transition. Even though the control of MPK activity has been well established with regard to the phosphorylation of Cdc2 at Thr 14 and/or Tyr 15 and Thr 161, little is known about the proteolytic control of Cdc2. In this study, we observed

Activation of type‐1 protein phosphatase by cdc2 kinase [PDF]
Purified cdc2 or cdc2 obtained from HeLa cells in association with p131sucl activate inactive type‐1 protein phosphatase (PP1) (catalytic subunit · inhibitor‐2 complex, purified from skeletal muscle). Likewise in the case of PP1 activation by FA/GSK3, activation by cdc2 is accompanied by phosphorylation of inhibitor‐2 (I2) and free I2 can be ...

Zinc regulates meiotic resumption in porcine oocytes via a protein kinase C-related pathway. [PDF]
Zinc is an extremely important trace element that plays important roles in several biological processes. However, the function of zinc in meiotic division of porcine oocytes is unknown.

The Cdc2 protein kinase controls Cdc10/Sct1 complex formation.
In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the execution of Start requires the activity of the Cdc2 protein kinase and the Cdc10/Sct1 transcription complex. The loss of any of these genes leads to G1 arrest and activation of the mating pathway under appropriate conditions.

Modulation of plant growth in vivo and identification of kinase substrates using an analog-sensitive variant of CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASE A;1 [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Modulation of protein activity by phosphorylation through kinases and subsequent de-phosphorylation by phosphatases is one of the most prominent cellular control mechanisms.
