The Ca2+/Calmodulin-dependent Protein Kinase Kinases Are AMP-activated Protein Kinase Kinases [PDF]
The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important regulator of cellular metabolism in response to metabolic stress and to other regulatory signals. AMPK activity is absolutely dependent upon phosphorylation of AMPKalphaThr-172 in its activation loop by one or more AMPK kinases (AMPKKs).

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.

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-

The Kinase Specificity of Protein Kinase Inhibitor Peptide [PDF]
G-protein-coupled-receptor (GPCR) signaling is exquisitely controlled to achieve spatial and temporal specificity. The endogenous protein kinase inhibitor peptide (PKI) confines the spatial and temporal spread of the activity of protein kinase A (PKA), which integrates inputs from three major types of GPCRs.

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.

Targeting protein kinases for anti-glioma treatment
The genetic alterations related to many kinases are responsible for the formation of glial tumours. In addition it is the cell kinases that keep the cancerous signalling machinery in motion, thus enabling tumour cell growth, motility and invasion. Kinase

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
