MLKL D144K mutation activates the necroptotic activity of the N-terminal MLKL domain [PDF]
AbstractMixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is an essential effector protein of necroptotic cell death. The four-helix bundle domain (4HB) presented by the first 125 amino acids of the N-terminal domain is sufficient for its necroptotic activity. However, it has been proposed that the subsequent helix H6 of the brace region has a regulatory

Autophosphorylation at serine 166 regulates RIP kinase 1-mediated cell death and inflammation [PDF]
Receptor interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) regulates cell death and inflammatory responses downstream of TNFR1 and other receptors, and has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and degenerative diseases.

Sensing of endogenous nucleic acids by ZBP1 induces keratinocyte necroptosis and skin inflammation [PDF]
Aberrant detection of endogenous nucleic acids by the immune system can cause inflammatory disease. The scaffold function of the signaling kinase RIPK1 limits spontaneous activation of the nucleic acid sensor ZBP1.

MLKL regulates necrotic plasma membrane permeabilization [PDF]
Recent data from two independent laboratories have shed new light on the molecular mechanisms by which mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) promotes a peculiar form of regulated necrosis known as necroptosis. Upon phosphorylation by receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3), MLKL appears indeed to form oligomers that localize to the plasma ...

Staurosporine induces necroptotic cell death under caspase-compromised conditions in U937 cells [PDF]
For a long time necrosis was thought to be an uncontrolled process but evidences recently have revealed that necrosis can also occur in a regulated manner.

Acylation of MLKL impacts its function in necroptosis
ABSTRACTMixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) is a key signaling protein of necroptosis. Upon activation by phosphorylation, MLKL translocates to the plasma membrane and induces membrane permeabilization which contributes to the necroptosis-associated inflammation.

MLKL-mediated necroptosis is a target for cardiac protection in mouse models of type-1 diabetes
Background Cardiomyocyte death contributes to cardiac pathology of diabetes. Studies have shown that the RIPK3/MLKL necroptosis signaling is activated in diabetic hearts. Deletion of RIPK3 was reported to attenuate myocardial injury and heart dysfunction

Delivery of mixed-lineage kinase domain-like protein by vapor nanobubble photoporation induces necroptotic-like cell death in tumor cells [PDF]
Modern molecular medicine demands techniques to efficiently deliver molecules directly into mammalian cells. As proteins are the final mediators of most cellular pathways, efficient intracellular protein delivery techniques are highly desired.
