A-kinase-anchoring proteins [PDF]
Highly organized molecular complexes determine the precise location and timing of the signal transduction events that occur downstream of cell surface receptor activation ([Pawson and Nash, 2003][1]). One set of scaffolding molecules that organize such complexes is a family of proteins known as A-

A framework for classification of prokaryotic protein kinases. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Overwhelming majority of the Serine/Threonine protein kinases identified by gleaning archaeal and eubacterial genomes could not be classified into any of the well known Hanks and Hunter subfamilies of protein kinases.

Physiological Phosphorylation of Protein Kinase A at Thr-197 Is by a Protein Kinase A Kinase [PDF]
Phosphorylation of the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, or protein kinase A, on Thr-197 is required for optimal enzyme activity, and enzyme isolated from either animal sources or bacterial expression strains is found phosphorylated at this site.

Toxoplasma and Plasmodium protein kinases: roles in invasion and host cell remodelling [PDF]
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
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]
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

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)

Extracellular signal-regulated kinases mediate the enhancing effects of inflammatory mediators on resurgent currents in dorsal root ganglion neurons [PDF]
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 ...

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).
