Structural conservation of WEE1 and its role in cell cycle regulation in plants

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The WEE1 kinase is ubiquitous in plant development and negatively regulates the cell cycle through phosphorylations. However, analogies with the control of the human cell cycle by tyrosine- (Tyr-) phosphorylation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are ...

Targeting the DNA Damage Response for Cancer Therapy by Inhibiting the Kinase Wee1

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Cancer cells typically heavily rely on the G2/M checkpoint to survive endogenous and exogenous DNA damage, such as genotoxic stress due to genome instability or radiation and chemotherapy.

Wee1 kinase as a target for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2013
Wee1, a protein kinase, regulates the G 2 checkpoint in response to DNA damage. Preclinical studies have elucidated the role of wee1 in DNA damage repair and the stabilization of replication forks, supporting the validity of wee1 inhibition as a viable therapeutic target in cancer.

Casein kinase 1δ-dependent Wee1 protein degradation

open access: yes, 2014
Eukaryotic mitotic entry is controlled by Cdk1, which is activated by the Cdc25 phosphatase and inhibited by Wee1 tyrosine kinase, a target of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway.

Investigation into Sustainability of WEE1 Kinase in Plants

open access: yes
Phosphoregulation is essential for the control of cell division. In yeasts and animals, premature entry into mitosis is prevented by the inhibitory phosphorylation of CDK by WEE1 kinase.

Proto‐Panic Modulation by Caffeine‐Proteinoid Complexes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Caffeine–proteinoid microspheres synthesized by thermal polymerization exhibit compartmentalized drug loading with encapsulation efficiencies of 61%–82% and triphasic release kinetics. Electrochemical monitoring reveals multi‐scale oscillatory dynamics consistent with chaotic and damped harmonic behavior, while Boolean logic operations demonstrate ...

Reprogramming tumor immune microenvironment by ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms for enhanced cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Ultrasound‐responsive nanoplatforms reprogram the tumor immune microenvironment by targeting tumor cells, immune cells, and non‐immune stromal cells to enhance the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy. Abstract Cancer immunotherapy represents a significant advancement in cancer treatment by enhancing the specific recognition and elimination of cancer cells.

Identification of a Wee1-like kinase gene essential for procyclic Trypanosoma brucei survival. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Regulation of eukaryotic cell cycle progression requires sequential activation and inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs). Activation of the cyclin B-cdc2 kinase complex is a pivotal step in mitotic initiation and the tyrosine kinase Wee1 is a ...
