MAP3Kinase-dependent SnRK2-kinase activation is required for abscisic acid signal transduction and rapid osmotic stress response. [PDF]
Abiotic stresses, including drought and salinity, trigger a complex osmotic-stress and abscisic acid (ABA) signal transduction network. The core ABA signalling components are snf1-related protein kinase2s (SnRK2s), which are activated by ABA-triggered ...

Analysis of somatic mutations across the kinome reveals loss-of-function mutations in multiple cancer types [PDF]
In this study we use somatic cancer mutations to identify important functional residues within sets of related genes. We focus on protein kinases, a superfamily of phosphotransferases that share homologous sequences and structural motifs and have many ...

Exploring the chemotherapeutic potential of currently used kinase inhibitors: An update
Protein kinases are enzymes that transfer phosphate to protein, resulting in the modification of the protein. The human genome encodes approximately 538 kinases.

Phospho.ELM:a database of experimentally verified phosphorylation sites in eukaryotic proteins [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Post-translational phosphorylation is one of the most common protein modifications. Phosphoserine, threonine and tyrosine residues play critical roles in the regulation of many cellular processes.

Lipid activation of protein kinases
Lipids acutely control the amplitude, duration, and subcellular location of signaling by lipid second messenger-responsive kinases. Typically, this activation is controlled by membrane-targeting modules that allosterically control the function of kinase ...

KSP: an integrated method for predicting catalyzing kinases of phosphorylation sites in proteins
Background Protein phosphorylation by kinases plays crucial roles in various biological processes including signal transduction and tumorigenesis, thus a better understanding of protein phosphorylation events in cells is fundamental for studying protein ...
