Phosphorylation by Akt within the ST loop of AMPK-α1 down-regulates its activation in tumour cells [PDF]
, 2014 The insulin/IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor 1)-activated protein kinase Akt (also known as protein kinase B) phosphorylates Ser(487) in the ‘ST loop’ (serine/threonine-rich loop) within the C-terminal domain of AMPK-α1 (AMP-activated protein kinase-α1),

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Deletion within the Src homology domain 3 of Bruton's tyrosine kinase resulting in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). [PDF]
, 1994 The gene responsible for X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) has been recently identified to code for a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase (Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase, BTK), required for normal B cell development. BTK, like many other cytoplasmic

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.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 ...

Phosphorylation of Plant Microtubule-Associated Proteins During Cell Division
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Progression of mitosis and cytokinesis depends on the reorganization of cytoskeleton, with microtubules driving the segregation of chromosomes and their partitioning to two daughter cells.

Inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 down-regulates yes-associated protein expression in mesothelioma cells. [PDF]
, 2020 Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) is a protein kinase that plays a major role in transcription initiation. Yes-associated protein (YAP) is a main effector of the Hippo/YAP signalling pathway.

Anchored phosphatases modulate glucose homeostasis. [PDF]
, 2012 Endocrine release of insulin principally controls glucose homeostasis. Nutrient-induced exocytosis of insulin granules from pancreatic β-cells involves ion channels and mobilization of Ca(2+) and cyclic AMP (cAMP) signalling pathways.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Interaction between Yeast Cdc6 Protein and B-Type Cyclin/Cdc28 Kinases [PDF]
, 1996 During purification of recombinant Cdc6 expressed in yeast, we found that Cdc6 interacts with the critical cell cycle, cyclin-dependent protein kinase Cdc28.
