Exploring downstream pathways of aberrantly activated kinases for targeted leukemia therapy [PDF]
, 2008 Genetic alterations resulting in uncontrolled protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) activity are frequently found in leukemia and in human solid cancers. Although the development of small molecule kinase inhibitors has revolutionized therapy for PTKinduced ...

Mechanism of activation of NDR protein kinase by the HMOB1 protein [PDF]
, 2005 Serine/threonine kinases of the nuclear Dbf2-related (NDR) family are highly conserved throughout the eukaryotic world. Members of this kinase family are implicated in various aspects of the regulation of cell division and cell morphology. It has been

A study on L-threonine and L-serine uptake in Escherichia coli K-12 [PDF]
, 2023 In the current study, we report the identification and characterization of the yifK gene product as a novel amino acid carrier in E. coli K-12 cells. Both phenotypic and biochemical analyses showed that YifK acts as a permease specific to L-threonine and,

Characterization of TOR complex 2 (TORC2) in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]
, 2004 The TOR proteins play a central role in the control of cell growth. TOR proteins are the founding members of the phosphatidylinositol-related kinase (PIKK) family of protein kinases. In S. cerevisiae there are two TOR proteins, TOR1 and TOR2.

New insights into the "in vivo" and "in vitro" functions of mammalian TOR complex 2 [PDF]
, 2010 Target of rapamycin (TOR) is the main controller of cell growth and metabolism in response to nutrients, growth factors and the cellular energy status. TOR is a serine/threonine kinase conserved from yeast to mammals and is found in two functionally and

Functional analysis of TOR complex 2 and its control of sphingolipid biosynthesis in "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]
, 2006 sphingoid base, one of the intermediate of sphingolipids metabolites, plays a key role as a signaling molecule which activate PKH kinases and its substrates YPKs and PKC1 (Casamayor, Torrance et al. 1999; Friant, Lombardi et al.

Functional studies of serine/threonine protein kinase signalling in Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]
, 2006 Fork-head associated (FHA) domains function in the assembly of signalling complexes through specific interactions with phospho-threonine motifs. FHA domains are found in eukaryotes, and intriguingly in a subset of bacterial species including Mycobacteria

Human TPX2 is required for targeting Aurora-A kinase to the spindle [PDF]
, 2002 Aurora-A is a serine-threonine kinase implicated in the assembly and maintenance of the mitotic spindle. Here we show that human Aurora-A binds to TPX2, a prominent component of the spindle apparatus.
