Regulation of PP2A, PP4, and PP6 holoenzyme assembly by carboxyl-terminal methylation
The family of Phosphoprotein Phosphatases (PPPs) is responsible for most cellular serine and threonine dephosphorylation. PPPs achieve substrate specificity and selectivity by forming multimeric holoenzymes. PPP holoenzyme assembly is tightly controlled,

14-3-3 proteins regulate diverse cellular processes in eukaryotes by binding to phospho-serine or threonine of target proteins. One of the physiological functions of 14-3-3 is to bind and protect phosphate groups of the target proteins against ...

PP2A-serine/threonine protein phosphatases function as heterotrimeric holoenzymes, composed of a common scaffold (A-subunit encoded by PPP2R1A/PPP2R1B), a common catalytic (C-subunit encoded by PPP2CA/PPP2CB), and one of many variable regulatory (B ...

Cytokine-stimulated Phosphoflow of PBMC Using CyTOF Mass Cytometry
Phosphorylation of tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues is critical for the control of protein activity involved in various cellular events. An assortment of kinases and phosphatases regulate intracellular protein phosphorylation in many different ...

Calcineurin regulates homologous desensitization of natriuretic peptide receptor-A and inhibits ANP-induced testosterone production in MA-10 cells. [PDF]
Receptor desensitization is a ubiquitous regulatory mechanism that defines the activatable pool of receptors, and thus, the ability of cells to respond to environmental stimuli. In recent years, the molecular mechanisms controlling the desensitization of

We previously showed that preincubation of a 10,000 g supernatant (S(10)) from rat liver for 20 min at 37 degrees C dramatically increased the subsequent incorporation of [(14)C]acetate into sterols.

Phosphoprotein Phosphatase Activity in the Thyroid
Phosphoprotein phosphatase activity in the calf thyroid was found in various subcellular fractions. The relative amount in each fraction varied according to the substrate used: The 500g fraction had the highest specific activity when protamine was used, while the 5000g fraction was highest when histone was used. Triton X-100 tended to increase activity

Special Sensitization Pattern in Adenosine-Induced Myocardial Responses After Thyroxine-Treatment
Chronic thyroxine treatment reduces the susceptibility of atrial myocardium to adenosine. While the possible role of membrane adenosine receptors in this action is supported by several studies, the involvement of intracellular adenosine mechanisms has ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
