JAK inhibitors: a new choice for diabetes mellitus? [PDF]
Altered tyrosine kinase signaling is associated with a variety of diseases. Tyrosine kinases can be classified into two groups: receptor type and nonreceptor type. Nonreceptor-type tyrosine kinases are subdivided into Janus kinases (JAKs), focal adhesion

EGFR-to-Src family tyrosine kinase switching in proliferating-DTP TNBC cells creates a hyperphosphorylation-dependent vulnerability to EGFR TKI [PDF]
Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC) is the most aggressive type of breast malignancy, with chemotherapy as the only mainstay treatment. TNBC patients have the worst prognoses as a large fraction of them do not achieve complete pathological response post-

The dictyostelium kinome--analysis of the protein kinases from a simple model organism. [PDF]
Dictyostelium discoideum is a widely studied model organism with both unicellular and multicellular forms in its developmental cycle. The Dictyostelium genome encodes 285 predicted protein kinases, similar to the count of the much more advanced ...

Membrane lipid rafts are required for AMPA receptor tyrosine phosphorylation
Membrane lipid rafts are sphingolipids and cholesterol-enriched membrane microdomains, which form a center for the interaction or assembly of palmitoylated signaling molecules, including Src family non-receptor type protein tyrosine kinases.

The Jak/STAT signaling pathway is downregulated at febrile temperatures. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Janus family of kinases (JAKs), Jak1, Jak2, Jak3, and Tyk2, constitute a subgroup of non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases. Upon cytokine binding, the receptor-associated kinases are activated and phosphorylate tyrosine residues in their ...

The Oncogenic Signaling Disruptor, NDRG1: Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Activity
NDRG1 is an oncogenic signaling disruptor that plays a key role in multiple cancers, including aggressive pancreatic tumors. Recent studies have indicated a role for NDRG1 in the inhibition of multiple tyrosine kinases, including EGFR, c-Met, HER2 and ...

Resolving the binding-kinase discrepancy in bacterial chemotaxis: A nonequilibrium allosteric model and the role of energy dissipation [PDF]
The Escherichia coli chemotaxis signaling pathway has served as a model system for studying the adaptive sensing of environmental signals by large protein complexes. The chemoreceptors control the kinase activity of CheA in response to the extracellular ligand concentration and adapt across a wide concentration range by undergoing methylation and ...

Domain Architecture of the Nonreceptor Tyrosine Kinase Ack1
The nonreceptor tyrosine kinase (NRTK) Ack1 comprises a distinct arrangement of non-catalytic modules. Its SH3 domain has a C-terminal to the kinase domain (SH1), in contrast to the typical SH3-SH2-SH1 layout in NRTKs.
