Protein kinases are one of the largest protein families and they are responsible for regulation of a great number of signal transduction pathways in cells, through the phosphorylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues.

Bacterial Protein-Tyrosine Kinases [PDF]
Bacteria and Eukarya share essentially the same family of protein-serine/threonine kinases, also known as the Hanks-type kinases. However, when it comes to protein-tyrosine phosphorylation, bacteria seem to have gone their own way.

Deep evolutionary conservation of an intramolecular protein kinase activation mechanism [PDF]
DYRK-family kinases employ an intramolecular mechanism to autophosphorylate a critical tyrosine residue in the activation loop. Once phosphorylated, DYRKs lose tyrosine kinase activity and function as serine/threonine kinases.

MicroRNAs as the critical regulators of protein kinases in prostate and bladder cancers
Background Bladder cancer (BCa) and prostate cancer (PCa) are frequent urothelial and genital malignancies with a high ratio of morbidity and mortality which are more common among males.

Development of inhibitors for protein tyrosine kinases [PDF]
In the last 5 years, through combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening, computational chemistry, and traditional medicinal chemistry, numerous inhibitors for various protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) have been developed. The majority of these compounds are small molecules that compete at the ATP binding site of the catalytic domain of the ...

JNK and ERK8 as downstream effectors of receptor tyrosine kinases [PDF]
MAP kinases are a super-family of serine-threonine protein kinases expressed in all eukaryotic cells. In mammals, there are many MAP kinases with different biological functions, grouped in distinctly regulated groups, ERK1/2 (extracellular signal related

Molecular networks in FGF signaling: Flotillin-1 and Cbl-associated protein compete for the binding to fibroblast growth factor receptor substrate 2 [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor receptor substrate 2 (FRS2α) is a signaling adaptor protein that regulates downstream signaling of many receptor tyrosine kinases.

The Jak/STAT signaling pathway is downregulated at febrile temperatures. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Janus family of kinases (JAKs), Jak1, Jak2, Jak3, and Tyk2, constitute a subgroup of non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases. Upon cytokine binding, the receptor-associated kinases are activated and phosphorylate tyrosine residues in their ...

Computational identification of phospho-tyrosine sub-networks related to acanthocyte generation in neuroacanthocytosis [PDF]
Acanthocytes, abnormal thorny red blood cells (RBC), are one of the biological hallmarks of neuroacanthocytosis syndromes (NA), a group of rare hereditary neurodegenerative disorders.

Protein-tyrosine phosphorylation in Bacillus subtilis: a 10-year retrospective
The discovery of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in Bacillus subtilis in the year 2003 was followed by a decade of intensive research activity. Here we provide an overview of the lessons learned in that period.
