Investigation of c-Jun N-terminal Kinase 2 Regulation [PDF]
JNK2). This protein is unique in that it can autophosphorylate, or phosphorylate itself. It was found that these proteins tend to form aggregates of four, or tetramers, when inactive and remain as single units, or monomers, when active.

Benzochalcogenodiazoles, synthesis and applications in medicinal chemistry and photomedicine.
Benzochalcogenodiazoles BXDs (BOD: benzoxadiazole, BTD: benzothiadiazole, or BSD: benzoselenadiazole) are aromatic bicyclic compounds, containing chalcogen atoms, with applications ranging from material to medicinal chemistry. The recent developments in their preparation and functionalization are taking advantage of new methodologies such as C‐H ...

MEK1 inhibits cardiac PPARα activity by direct interaction and prevents its nuclear localization. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The response of the postnatal heart to growth and stress stimuli includes activation of a network of signal transduction cascades, including the stress activated protein kinases such as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), c-Jun NH2 ...

Comparing Theories for the Maintenance of Late LTP and Long-Term Memory: Computational Analysis of the Roles of Kinase Feedback Pathways and Synaptic Reactivation [PDF]
How can memories be maintained from days to a lifetime, given turnover of proteins that underlie expression of long-term synaptic potentiation (LTP)? One likely solution relies on synaptic positive feedback loops, prominently including persistent activation of CaM kinase II (CaMKII) and self-activated synthesis of protein kinase M zeta (PKM).

MKP1 mediates resistance to therapy in HER2-positive breast tumors. [PDF]
Mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphatase 1 (MKP1 or DUSP1) is an antiapoptotic phosphatase that is overexpressed in many cancers, including breast cancer.

In this study, A04, a compound targeting the degradation of metabolic enzyme PDK1, was developed by PROTAC technology, which significantly inhibited tumor proliferation by disrupting the Warburg effect in cancer cells. In the mouse model, A04 could prolong postoperative survival, and also remodel the immunosuppressive microenvironment, which could ...

Empowering AlphaFold2 for protein conformation selective drug discovery with AlphaFold2-RAVE [PDF]
Small molecule drug design hinges on obtaining co-crystallized ligand-protein structures. Despite AlphaFold2's strides in protein native structure prediction, its focus on apo structures overlooks ligands and associated holo structures. Moreover, designing selective drugs often benefits from the targeting of diverse metastable conformations. Therefore,
