Mitogen Activated Protein kinase signal transduction pathways in the prostate
The biochemistry of the mitogen activated protein kinases ERK, JNK, and p38 have been studied in prostate physiology in an attempt to elucidate novel mechanisms and pathways for the treatment of prostatic disease.

Giant Hub Src and Syk Tyrosine Kinase Thermodynamic Profiles Recapitulate Evolution [PDF]
Thermodynamic scaling theory, previously applied mainly to small proteins, here analyzes quantitative evolution of the titled functional network giant hub enzymes. The broad domain structure identified homologically is confirmed hydropathically using amino acid sequences only.

By decreasing cholesterol and lipid raft levels in the plasma membrane, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) boosts human epidermal growth factor receptor 1 and 3 (EGFR and HER3) activation, driving tumor growth and metastasis in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Manipulation of kinase signaling by bacterial pathogens [PDF]
Bacterial pathogens use effector proteins to manipulate their hosts to propagate infection. These effectors divert host cell signaling pathways to the benefit of the pathogen and frequently target kinase signaling cascades.

Mitogen-activated protein kinases in apoptosis regulation [PDF]
Cells are continuously exposed to a variety of environmental stresses and have to decide 'to be or not to be' depending on the types and strength of stress. Among the many signaling pathways that respond to stress, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family members are crucial for the maintenance of cells.

Lactobacillus johnsonii and its associated purine metabolite inosine not only restrict systemic B cell differentiation, but also contribute to immune cell infiltration in the kidneys, thereby serving dual functions in mitigating the progression of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

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).

Exploring kinase DFG loop conformational stability with AlphaFold2-RAVE [PDF]
Kinases compose one of the largest fractions of the human proteome, and their misfunction is implicated in many diseases, in particular cancers. The ubiquitousness and structural similarities of kinases makes specific and effective drug design difficult. In particular, conformational variability due to the evolutionarily conserved DFG motif adopting in
