Protein Kinase A in Cancer [PDF]
In the past, many chromosomal and genetic alterations have been examined as possible causes of cancer. However, some tumors do not display a clear molecular and/or genetic signature. Therefore, other cellular processes may be involved in carcinogenesis.

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 ...

YAP1/TAZ drives ependymoma-like tumour formation in mice
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.

A-kinase-interacting protein localizes protein kinase A in the nucleus [PDF]
The genetic variability and covalent modifications associated with the amino terminus of the protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic (C) subunit suggest that it may contribute to protein–protein interactions and/or localization. By using a yeast two-hybrid screen, we identified a PKA-interacting protein (AKIP1) that binds to the amino terminus (residues 1–39)

Mammalian NDR kinases : tumor suppressors with essential functions in embryonic development [PDF]
NDR kinases are highly conserved from yeast to man. Loss-of-function models of Ndr homologs in yeast and fly demonstrate essential functions of the respective kinases.

Edmond Fischer's kinase legacy: History of the protein kinase inhibitor and protein kinase A
AbstractAlthough Fischer's extraordinary career came to focus mostly on the protein phosphatases, after his co‐discovery of Phosphorylase Kinase with Ed Krebs he was clearly intrigued not only by cAMP‐dependent protein kinase (PKA), but also by the heat‐stable, high‐affinity protein kinase inhibitor (PKI).

Functional characterization of human NDR kinases : novel regulatory mechanisms and a path towards direct substrates [PDF]
Protein kinases are important regulators of signal transduction pathways in both unicellular and multicellular organisms. They play critical roles in biological processes such as cell growth, division, differentiation, adhesion, motility and cell death ...
