Protein Kinase CK2 Is an Inhibitor of the Neuronal Cdk5 Kinase [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
The complex of Cdk5 and its neuronal activator p35 is a proline-directed Ser/Thr kinase that plays an important role in various neuronal functions. Deregulation of the Cdk5 enzymatic activity was found to associate with a number of neurodegenerative diseases.

1,2,6-thiadiazinones as novel narrow spectrum calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) inhibitors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
We demonstrate for the first time that 4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one (TDZ) can function as a chemotype for the design of ATP-competitive kinase inhibitors. Using insights from a co-crystal structure of a 3,5-bis(arylamino)-4H-1,2,6-thiadiazin-4-one bound to ...

Evidence of the presence of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV in human sperm and its involvement in motility regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The mechanisms involved in the regulation of mammalian sperm motility are not well understood. Calcium ions (Ca(2+)) have been suggested to play a key role in the maintenance of motility; nevertheless, how Ca(2+) modulates this process has not yet been ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase (ERK) Inhibitors in Oncology Clinical Trials [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

Rapid evolution of protein kinase PKR alters sensitivity to viral inhibitors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Protein kinase PKR (also known as EIF2AK2) is activated during viral infection and phosphorylates the alpha subunit of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 (eIF2), leading to inhibition of translation and viral replication. We report fast evolution

Ebola virus VP35 induces high-level production of recombinant TPL-2–ABIN-2–NF-κB1 p105 complex in co-transfected HEK-293 cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Kinome-wide interaction modelling using alignment-based and alignment-independent approaches for kinase description and linear and non-linear data analysis techniques

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2010
Background Protein kinases play crucial roles in cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. Abnormal function of protein kinases can lead to many serious diseases, such as cancer.

Targeted polypharmacology: discovery of dual inhibitors of tyrosine and phosphoinositide kinases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...
