Phosphorylation of acetylhexosamines [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1958
Abstract The phosphorylation of acetylglucosamine and acetylgalactosamine by adenosine triphosphate catalyzed by extracts of rat organs has been studied. The reaction products had the properties of acetylglucosamine 6-phosphate and acetylgalactosamine 1-phosphate, respectively. The enzymes appear to be different from other kinases.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase ZNRF2 is a substrate of mTORC1 and regulates its activation by amino acids

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The mechanistic Target of Rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) senses intracellular amino acid levels through an intricate machinery, which includes the Rag GTPases, Ragulator and vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase).

Pharmacological rescue of impaired mitophagy in Parkinson’s disease-related LRRK2 G2019S knock-in mice

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a major and progressive neurodegenerative disorder, yet the biological mechanisms involved in its aetiology are poorly understood.

Phosphorylation of Sli15 by Ipl1 is important for proper CPC localization and chromosome stability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) is a key regulator of eukaryotic cell division, consisting of the protein kinase Aurora B/Ipl1 in association with its activator (INCENP/Sli15) and two additional proteins (Survivin/Bir1 and Borealin/Nbl1). Here we

HIF1a-dependent mitophagy facilitates cardiomyoblast differentiation

open access: yesCell Stress, 2020
Mitophagy is thought to play a key role in eliminating damaged mitochondria, with diseases such as cancer and neurodegeneration exhibiting defects in this process.

Kinase domain insertions define distinct roles of CLK kinases in SR protein phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Splicing requires reversible phosphorylation of serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins, which direct splice site selection in eukaryotic mRNA. These phosphorylation events are dependent on SR protein (SRPK) and cdc2-like kinase (CLK) families.

PKCɛ switches Aurora B specificity to exit the abscission checkpoint

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
The Aurora B abscission checkpoint is activated when DNA is retained in the cleavage furrow on completion of anaphase. Here the authors show that PKCɛ directly phosphorylates Aurora B triggering a switch in Aurora B substrate specificity to elicit ...

A genetically-encoded crosslinker screen identifies SERBP1 as a PKCε substrate influencing translation and cell division

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
PKCε is known to exert a role in genome protection by directly phosphorylating and switching the specificity of Aurora B. Here the authors identify SERBP1 as a parallel mitotic PKCε substrate controlling translation and ensuring the integrity of ...

Bub1 autophosphorylation feeds back to regulate kinetochore docking and promote localized substrate phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
During mitosis, Bub1 kinase phosphorylates histone H2A-T120 to promote centromere sister chromatid cohesion through recruitment of shugoshin (Sgo) proteins. The regulation and dynamics of H2A-T120 phosphorylation are poorly understood. Using quantitative
