Toxoplasma and Plasmodium protein kinases: roles in invasion and host cell remodelling [PDF]
, 2011 Some apicomplexan parasites have evolved distinct protein kinase families to modulate host cell structure and function. Toxoplasma gondii rhoptry protein kinases and pseudokinases are involved in virulence and modulation of host cell signalling.

YAP1/TAZ drives ependymoma-like tumour formation in mice
Nature Communications, 2020 YAP1 gene fusions are found in subgroups of paediatric ependymomas. Here the authors show that YAP1 activation in NeuroD6 positive neuronal precursor cells can induce ependymoma-like tumours in mice.

Tv-RIO1 – an atypical protein kinase from the parasitic nematode Trichostrongylus vitrinus [PDF]
, 2008 Background: Protein kinases are key enzymes that regulate a wide range of cellular processes, including cell-cycle progression, transcription, DNA replication and metabolic functions. These enzymes catalyse the transfer of phosphates to serine, threonine

Extracellular signal-regulated kinases mediate the enhancing effects of inflammatory mediators on resurgent currents in dorsal root ganglion neurons [PDF]
, 2019 Previously we reported that a group of inflammatory mediators significantly enhanced resurgent currents in dorsal root ganglion neurons. To understand the underlying intracellular signaling mechanism, we investigated the effects of inhibition of ...

Non-degradative Ubiquitination of Protein Kinases. [PDF]
PLoS Computational Biology, 2016 Growing evidence supports other regulatory roles for protein ubiquitination in addition to serving as a tag for proteasomal degradation. In contrast to other common post-translational modifications, such as phosphorylation, little is known about how non ...

c-Jun N-Terminal Kinase in Inflammation and Rheumatic Diseases. [PDF]
, 2012 The c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs) are members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family and are activated by environmental stress. JNK is also activated by proinflammatory cytokines, such as TNF and IL-1, and Toll-like receptor ligands ...

Protein phosphorylation in yeast mitochondria [PDF]
, 1987 We describe the identification and submitochondrial localization of four protein kinases and of their target proteins in derepressed yeast mitochondria. The activity of one of the kinases depends on the presence of cyclic AMP (cAMP).

IUBMB Life, 2000 Phosphorylation is a universal language used by cells to relay information between and within cells. One family of kinases that plays a key role in transducing information is the protein kinase C family. Members of this family interpret information from signals that result in phospholipid hydrolysis; they communicate to substrates throughout the cell ...
