Receptor Protein Tyrosine Kinases and Phosphatases

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 1992
It is clear that the number of receptor PTKs and PTPs encoded by a typical vertebrate genome is rather large. Although the signal pathways activated by the receptor PTKs may in many cases be common, specificity is provided by the ligand-binding domain and the availability of ligand.

Novel approaches to targeting protein tyrosine kinases

open access: yes, 2015
Protein kinases, a diverse group of cellular enzymes, play fundamental roles in maintaining normal cellular functions such as growth, cell cycle control, proliferation, differentiation, migration, cellular survival and apoptotic induction.

Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis: Analysis and Identification of Protein Kinase Substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
This research study examines the synthesis of tyrosine containing peptides based on the protein paxillin. Paxillin is a proposed substrate of the Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) protein tyrosine kinase.

Protein tyrosine phosphatase TbPTP1:A molecular switch controlling life cycle differentiation in trypanosomes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Differentiation in African trypanosomes (Trypanosoma brucei) entails passage between a mammalian host, where parasites exist as a proliferative slender form or a G0-arrested stumpy form, and the tsetse fly.

Somatostatin receptor 4 (SSTR4) is a tumor suppressor in cutaneous and head & neck squamous cell carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study identifies somatostatin receptor 4 (Sstr4) as a critical tumor suppressor against skin and head/neck cancers (HNSCC, cSCC, and BCC). The loss of Sstr4 removes a check on cell growth, causing hyperactivation of the MAPK‐ERK signaling pathway (↑).

Alternative Splicing in Oncogenic Kinases: From Physiological Functions to Cancer

open access: yesJournal of Nucleic Acids, 2012
Among the 518 protein kinases encoded by the human kinome, several of them act as oncoproteins in human cancers. Like other eukaryotic genes, oncogenes encoding protein kinases are frequently subjected to alternative splicing in coding as well as ...

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

The Role of Protein Kinases in Antigen-activation of Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Schistosoma mansoni Infected Individuals

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 1997
T cell recognition of antigens displayed on the surface of antigen presenting cell results in rapid activation of protein tyrosine kinases and kinase C.

Identification of protein tyrosine kinases with oncogenic potential using a retroviral insertion mutagenesis screen

open access: yesHaematologica, 2009
Protein tyrosine kinases form a large family of signaling proteins implicated in both normal and malignant cell signaling. The aim of this study was to identify protein tyro-sine kinases that can transform hematopoietic cells to growth factor independent

Regulation of the Src protein tyrosine kinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1995
Members of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases are involved in a variety of cellular processes, including cell growth, cell differentiation and neuronal signalling. N‐terminal to the catalytic domain, Src family members contain a Src homology 2 (SH2) domain, a Src homology 3 (SH3) domain, and a unique domain, all capable of protein‐protein ...
