Malaria protein kinase CK2 (PfCK2) shows novel mechanisms of regulation [PDF]
Casein kinase 2 (protein kinase CK2) is a conserved eukaryotic serine/theronine kinase with multiple substrates and roles in the regulation of cellular processes such as cellular stress, cell proliferation and apoptosis.

Correlation of human protein kinase A (PKA) and G-glycoprotein in patients with T2DM
Background: Type 2 diabetes usually starts with insulin resistance—a condition that happens when muscle, fat, and liver cells cannot use insulin to deliver glucose into the cells of the body for energy use.

Beta-adrenergic agonist protects retinal pigment epithelium against hydroxycholoroquine toxicity via cAMP-PKA signal pathway [PDF]
AIM: To test our hypothesis that activation of protein kinase A (PKA) signal pathway by β-adrenergic agonist plays an important role in the protecting of cultured retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells against the hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) toxicity ...

Phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1)-independent activation of the protein kinase C substrate, protein kinase D [PDF]
Phosphoinoisitide dependent kinase l (PDK1) is proposed to phosphorylate a key threonine residue within the catalytic domain of the protein kinase C (PKC) superfamily that controls the stability and catalytic competence of these kinases.

Mechanism of activation of NDR protein kinase by the HMOB1 protein [PDF]
Serine/threonine kinases of the nuclear Dbf2-related (NDR) family are highly conserved throughout the eukaryotic world. Members of this kinase family are implicated in various aspects of the regulation of cell division and cell morphology. It has been

Regulation of protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) by DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) under physiological conditions [PDF]
The serine/threonine protein kinase B (PKB/Akt) is a downstream effector of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and a major regulator of a variety of cellular processes, including metabolism, transcription, survival, proliferation, and growth.
