Phosphorylated lymphocyte plasma-membrane proteins [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1981
Lymphocytes were labelled by incubation with [32P]Pi and their plasma membranes isolated. Analysis by one-dimensional and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed a small number of strongly phosphorylated polypeptides. Two of these were especially prominent; they had molecular weights of about 52000 and 90000, were acidic and were apparently not ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Mechanism of TNFα-induced downregulation of salt-inducible kinase 2 in adipocytes

Scientific Reports, 2023
Salt-inducible kinase 2 (SIK2) is highly expressed in white adipocytes, but downregulated in individuals with obesity and insulin resistance. These conditions are often associated with a low-grade inflammation in adipose tissue.

Symposia on Plant (Protein) Phosphorylation [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
From September 14-16, 2011 the twelfth symposium on Plant Protein Phosphorylation was held in Tübingen, Germany. The topic is as broad as the name suggests and covers all aspects of this important means of protein modification in plants. I have had the pleasure of attending the 2007 and the 2011 symposia.

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Targeted dephosphorylation of SMAD3 as an approach to impede TGF-β signaling

iScience
Summary: TGF-β (transforming growth factor-β) signaling is involved in a myriad of cellular processes and its dysregulation has been implicated in many human diseases, including fibrosis and cancer.

Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

RNF12 X-Linked Intellectual Disability Mutations Disrupt E3 Ligase Activity and Neural Differentiation

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: X-linked intellectual disability (XLID) is a heterogeneous syndrome affecting mainly males. Human genetics has identified >100 XLID genes, although the molecular and developmental mechanisms underpinning this disorder remain unclear.

Protein phosphorylation in chloroplasts – a survey of phosphorylation targets [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2016
The development of new software tools, improved mass spectrometry equipment, a suite of optimized scan types, and better-quality phosphopeptide affinity capture have paved the way for an explosion of mass spectrometry data on phosphopeptides. Because phosphoproteomics achieves good sensitivity, most studies use complete cell extracts for phosphopeptide

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.
