Parkinson’s disease-implicated kinases in the brain; insights into disease pathogenesis.

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2014
Substantial evidence implicates abnormal protein kinase function in various aspects of Parkinson’s disease (PD) etiology. Elevated phosphorylation of the PD-defining pathological protein, α-synuclein, correlates with its aggregation and toxic ...

An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

Hippocampus-Dependent Memory Formation: Do Memory Type-Specific Mechanisms Exist?

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2005
Long-term memory (LTM) formation requires gene transcription and de novo protein synthesis. The transcription factor CREB is required for hippocampus-dependent LTM formation, and it is activated by several signaling pathways, including protein kinase A ...

Protein kinases as potential anticandidal drug targets

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020
Candidal infections are increasing at an alarming rate due to hospital acquired infections causing high mortality rates worldwide. Moreover, the emergence of drug resistant Candida strains is the major impediment against effective therapeutics.

Integration of a Phosphatase Cascade with the MAP Kinase Pathway provides for a Novel Signal Processing Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We mathematically modeled the receptor-activated MAP kinase signaling by incorporating the regulation through cellular phosphatases. Activation induced the alignment of a phosphatase cascade in parallel with the MAP kinase pathway.

Cobimetinib and trametinib inhibit platelet MEK but do not cause platelet dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The MEK inhibitors cobimetinib and trametinib are used in combination with BRAF inhibitors to treat metastatic melanoma but increase rates of hemorrhage relative to BRAF inhibitors alone.

A Radioactive in vitro ERK3 Kinase Assay

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2019
Mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are serine/threonine kinases that have an important role in signal transduction. Extracellular signal-regulated kinase 3 (ERK3), also known as MAPK6, is an atypical MAPK.

Involvement of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signalling pathway in host cell invasion by Toxoplasma gondii

open access: yesParasite, 2000
Little is known about signalling in Toxoplasma gondii, but it is likely that protein kinases might play a key role in the parasite proliferation, differentiation and probably invasion.

Short-term low-protein diet during pregnancy alters islet area and protein content of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway in rats

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2015
The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways mediate β cell growth, proliferation, survival and death. We investigated whether protein restriction during pregnancy alters islet morphometry or the expression and ...

Erythropoietin-induced serine 727 phosphorylation of STAT3 in erythroid cells is mediated by a MEK-, ERK-, and MSK1-dependent pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Objective. Erythropoietin (EPO) is a key regulator of erythropoiesis, playing a role in both the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid cells.
