Adverse prognostic and predictive significance of low DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) expression in early-stage breast cancers [PDF]
Background: DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), a serine threonine kinase belonging to the PIKK family (phosphoinositide 3-kinase-like-family of protein kinase), is a critical component of the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ ...

GSK3-mediated raptor phosphorylation supports amino acid-dependent Q2 mTORC1-directed signalling [PDF]
The mammalian or mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) is a ubiquitously expressed multimeric protein kinase complex that integrates nutrient and growth factor signals for the co-ordinated regulation of cellular metabolism and cell ...

Impact of PNKP mutations associated with microcephaly, seizures and developmental delay on enzyme activity and DNA strand break repair [PDF]
Microcephaly with early-onset, intractable seizures and developmental delay (MCSZ) is a hereditary disease caused by mutations in polynucleotide kinase/phosphatase (PNKP), a DNA strand break repair protein with DNA 5'-kinase and DNA 3'-phosphatase ...

Depletion of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum of cardiac muscle prompts phosphorylation of phospholamban to stimulate store refilling [PDF]
Nonmuscle cells have almost ubiquitously evolved a mechanism to detect and prevent Ca(2+) store depletionstore operated calcium entry. No such mechanism has, as yet, been reported in cardiac myocytes.

Plasma membrane association by N-acylation governs PKG function in Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
Cyclic GMP (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase (protein kinase G [PKG]) is essential for microneme secretion, motility, invasion, and egress in apicomplexan parasites, However, the separate roles of two isoforms of the kinase that are expressed by some ...

Since protein kinases have been found to be implicated in many diseases, first of all malignancies, they are considered as promising therapeutic targets. Many protein kinase inhibitors have been designed by now. These molecules have a low molecular weight and most of them bind to protein kinases competing with ATP for the ATP-binding site. Some protein

Metabolic Kinases Moonlighting as Protein Kinases [PDF]
Protein kinases regulate every aspect of cellular activity, whereas metabolic enzymes are responsible for energy production and catabolic and anabolic processes. Emerging evidence demonstrates that some metabolic enzymes, such as pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1), ketohexokinase (KHK) isoform A (KHK-A), hexokinase (HK), and ...

Localization of tyrosine kinase-coding region in v-abl oncogene by the expression of v-abl-encoded proteins in bacteria [PDF]
A series of plasmids containing different segments of the v-abl oncogene have been constructed to express different portions of the v- abl protein in bacteria.
