p25/Cdk5-mediated retinoblastoma phosphorylation is an early event in neuronal cell death [PDF]
, 2005 In large models of neuronal cell death, there is a tight correlation between Cdk5 deregulation and cell-cycle dysfunction. However, pathways that link Cdk5 to the cell cycle during neuronal death are still unclear.

Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase (ERK) Inhibitors in Oncology Clinical Trials [PDF]
Journal of Immunotherapy and Precision Oncology, 2019 The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway consists of the series of protein kinases RAS-RAF-MEK- Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and its function is important to cell proliferation, differentiation, motility, and survival.

Exploring the chemotherapeutic potential of currently used kinase inhibitors: An update
Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023 Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer phosphate to protein, resulting in the modification of the protein. The human genome encodes approximately 538 kinases.

Ebola virus VP35 induces high-level production of recombinant TPL-2–ABIN-2–NF-κB1 p105 complex in co-transfected HEK-293 cells [PDF]
, 2013 Activation of PKR (double-stranded-RNA-dependent protein kinase) by DNA plasmids decreases translation, and limits the amount of recombinant protein produced by transiently transfected HEK (human embryonic kidney)-293 cells.

Targeted polypharmacology: discovery of dual inhibitors of tyrosine and phosphoinositide kinases. [PDF]
, 2008 The clinical success of multitargeted kinase inhibitors has stimulated efforts to identify promiscuous drugs with optimal selectivity profiles. It remains unclear to what extent such drugs can be rationally designed, particularly for combinations of ...

Activation of tyrosine kinases by mutation of the gatekeeper threonine. [PDF]
, 2008 Protein kinases targeted by small-molecule inhibitors develop resistance through mutation of the gatekeeper threonine residue of the active site. Here we show that the gatekeeper mutation in the cellular forms of c-ABL, c-SRC, platelet-derived growth ...

The Serine/Threonine Protein Kinase (Akt)/ Protein Kinase B (PkB) Signaling Pathway in Breast Cancer [PDF]
, 2020 According to statistical data published in 2019, breast cancer is among the leading causes of death in women worldwide. The serine/threonine kinase (AKT) or protein kinase B (PkB) signaling pathway is activated by phosphorylation processes, which further

The malaria parasite cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase plays a central role in blood-stage schizogony [PDF]
, 2010 A role for the Plasmodium falciparum cyclic GMP (cGMP)-dependent protein kinase (PfPKG) in gametogenesis in the malaria parasite was elucidated previously. In the present study we examined the role of PfPKG in the asexual blood-stage of the parasite life
