Coordinating the balance between development and stress responses is critical for organismal survival. However, the cellular signaling controlling this mechanism is not well understood.

Inhibition of neurite outgrowth in differentiating mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells by phenyl saligenin phosphate: Effects on MAP kinase (ERK 1/2) activation, neurofilament heavy chain phosphorylation and neuropathy target esterase activity [PDF]
Sub-lethal concentrations of the organophosphate phenyl saligenin phosphate (PSP) inhibited the outgrowth of axon-like processes in differentiating mouse N2a neuroblastoma cells (IC50 2.5 μM).

BWMK1, a Novel MAP Kinase Induced by Fungal Infection and Mechanical Wounding in Rice
The activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases by different environmental stresses has been previously observed in several dicot plant species. Here, we report the isolation of a novel MAP kinase in rice that is induced during infection by

Endothelin-1, phorbol esters and phenylephrine stimulate MAP kinase activities in ventricular cardiomyocytes [PDF]
ET-1 stimulated MBP kinase activity in cultured cardiomyocytes. Maximal activation (3.5-fold) was at 5 min. EC50 was 0.2 nM. PMA or PE also increased MBP kinase (4- or 2.5-fold, respectively). Pre-treatment with PMA down-regulated the subsequent response

Oxidation and phosphorylation of MAP kinase 4 cause protein aggregation
Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MPK) cascades are highly conserved signaling pathways that respond to environmental cues. Arabidopsis MPK4 has been identified as a stress-responsive protein kinase. Here we demonstrate that Brassica napus MPK4 (BnMPK4) is activated by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA).

mRNP3 and mRNP4 are phosphorylatable by casein kinase II in Xenopus oocytes, but phosphorylation does not modify RNA-binding affinity [PDF]
mRNP3 and mRNP4 (also called FRGY2) are two mRNA-binding proteins which are major constituents of the maternal RNA storage particles of Xenopus laevis oocytes. The phosphorylation of mRNP3–4 has been implicated in the regulation of mRNA masking.

Prediction of kinase inhibitor response using activity profiling, in-vitro screening, and elastic net regression [PDF]
Many kinase inhibitors have been approved as cancer therapies. Recently, libraries of kinase inhibitors have been extensively profiled, thus providing a map of the strength of action of each compound on a large number of its targets. These profiled libraries define drug-kinase networks that can predict the effectiveness of new untested drugs and ...

Glutathione S-Transferase p Elicits Protection against H2O2-induced Cell Death via Coordinated Regulation of Stress Kinases [PDF]
To elucidate mechanisms underlying glutathione S-transferase p (GSTp)-mediated cellular protection against oxidative stress-induced cell death, the effect of GSTp on stress signaling pathways was investigated before and after H2O2 treatment.

Effect of Chitosan Composite Preservative on Proteome Changes of Grass Carp Muscle during Cold Storage [PDF]
To explore the effect of a chitosan-based preservative solution (10 mg/mL chitosan + 5 mg/mL tea polyphenol + 2 000 U/mL lysozyme) on the change in the muscle proteome of grass carp during cold storage, differential proteomic analysis of fresh fish and ...
