Positional information readout in $Ca^{2+}$ signaling [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. Lett. 123, 058102 (2019), 2017
Living cells respond to spatial signals. Signal transmission to the cell interior often involves the release of second messengers like $Ca^{2+}$ . They will eventually trigger a physiological response by activating kinases that in turn activate target proteins through phosphorylation. Here, we investigate theoretically how positional information can be

A uniform procedure for the purification of CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1

open access: yesBiological Procedures Online, 2004
We have established a uniform procedure for the expression and purification of the cyclin-dependent kinases CDK7/CycH/MAT1, CDK8/CycC and CDK9/CycT1. We attach a His6-tag to one of the subunits of each complex and then co-express it together with the ...

A kinase of many talents: non-neuronal functions of CDK5 in development and disease [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2020
The cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) represents an unusual member of the family of cyclin-dependent kinases, which is activated upon binding to non-cyclin p35 and p39 proteins. The role of CDK5 in the nervous system has been very well established.

Reaction Engineering and Comparison of Electroenzymatic and Enzymatic ATP Regeneration Systems [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP) plays a crucial role in many biocatalytic reactions and its regeneration can influence the performance of a related enzymatic reaction significantly. Here, we established an electrochemically coupled ATP regeneration by pyruvate oxidase and acetate kinase (ACK) for the phosphorylation of mevalonate catalyzed by ...

A divergent cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase complex controls the atypical replication of a malaria parasite during gametogony and transmission

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Cell cycle transitions are generally triggered by variation in the activity of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) bound to cyclins. Malaria-causing parasites have a life cycle with unique cell-division cycles, and a repertoire of divergent CDKs and cyclins ...

A Model of the Roles of Essential Kinases in the Induction and Expression of Late Long-Term Potentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The induction of late long-term potentiation (L-LTP) involves complex interactions among second messenger cascades. To gain insights into these interactions, a mathematical model was developed for L-LTP induction in the CA1 region of the hippocampus. The differential equation-based model represents actions of protein kinase A (PKA), MAP kinase (MAPK ...

STRUCTURAL BIOINFORMATICS STUDY OF CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASES COMPLEXED WITH INHIBITORS

open access: yesEclética Química, 2018
The present work describes molecular models for the binary complexes CDK9, CDK5 and CDK1 complexed with Flavopiridol and Roscovitine. These structural models indicate that the inhibitors strongly bind to the ATP-binding pocket of CDKs and the structural ...

Bifurcation analysis of a model of the budding yeast cell cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We study the bifurcations of a set of nine nonlinear ordinary differential equations that describe the regulation of the cyclin-dependent kinase that triggers DNA synthesis and mitosis in the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show that Clb2-dependent kinase exhibits bistability (stable steady states of high or low kinase activity).

Cyclin dependent kinases and their role in regulation of plant cell cycle

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2011
Plants have capability to optimize its architecture by using CDK pathways. It involves diverse types of cyclin dependent kinase enzymes (CDKs). CDKs are classified in to eight classes (CDKA to CDKG and CKL) based on the recognized cyclin-binding domains.

Correlation between Cyclin Dependent Kinases and Artemisinin-Induced Dormancy in Plasmodium falciparum In Vitro. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Artemisinin-induced dormancy provides a plausible explanation for recrudescence following artemisinin monotherapy. This phenomenon shares similarities with cell cycle arrest where cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) and cyclins play an important role ...
