Discrete cytosolic macromolecular BRAF complexes exhibit distinct activities and composition [PDF]
As a central element within the RAS/ERK pathway, the serine/threonine kinase BRAF plays a key role in development and homeostasis and represents the most frequently mutated kinase in tumors.

Celastrol targets mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I to induce reactive oxygen species-dependent cytotoxicity in tumor cells [PDF]
Background Celastrol is an active ingredient of the traditional Chinese medicinal plant Tripterygium Wilfordii, which exhibits significant antitumor activity in different cancer models in vitro and in vivo; however, the lack of information on the target ...

HECTD3 mediates an HSP90-dependent degradation pathway for protein kinase clients [PDF]
Inhibition of the ATPase cycle of the HSP90 chaperone promotes ubiquitylation and proteasomal degradation of its client proteins, which include many oncogenic protein kinases.

HSP-90/kinase complexes are stabilized by the large PPIase FKB-6
Protein kinases are important regulators in cellular signal transduction. As one major type of Hsp90 client, protein kinases rely on the ATP-dependent molecular chaperone Hsp90, which maintains their structure and supports their activation.

Characterization of HSP90 isoforms in transformed bovine leukocytes infected with Theileria annulata [PDF]
HSP90 chaperones are essential regulators of cellular function, as they ensure the appropriate conformation of multiple key client proteins. Four HSP90 isoforms were identified in the protozoan parasite Theileria annulata.

Characterization of Celastrol to Inhibit Hsp90 and Cdc37 Interaction [PDF]
The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is required for the stabilization and conformational maturation of various oncogenic proteins in cancer. The loading of protein kinases to Hsp90 is actively mediated by the cochaperone Cdc37. The crucial role of the Hsp90-Cdc37 complex has made it an exciting target for cancer treatment.

Cdc37 and protein kinase folding
Cdc37 is a molecular chaperone that collaborates with Hsp90 to fold protein kinases and other clients including transcription factors. Cdc37 function in protein kinase folding is dependent on direct interaction between the chaperone and the N-lobe of the kinase catalytic domain.

[Pemetrexed + Sorafenib] lethality is increased by inhibition of ERBB1/2/3-PI3K-NFκB compensatory survival signaling [PDF]
In the completed phase I trial NCT01450384 combining the anti-folate pemetrexed and the multi-kinase inhibitor sorafenib it was observed that 20 of 33 patients had prolonged stable disease or tumor regression, with one complete response and multiple ...
