Protein phosphorylation is a covalent post-translational modification event that is essential for regulation and maintenance of most biological processes in eukaryotes 1. Conventionally ...
each containing a fixed serine or threonine residue and another fixed amino acid in one of nine flanking positions 4. However, unlike with the OPAL approach, the phosphorylation reactions were ...
Nishida, "Xenopus MAP kinase activator: identification and function as a key intermediate in the phosphorylation cascade," The EMBO Journal, 11:973-82, 1992. Eisuke Nishida (Department of Genetics and ...
Much of this control is via protein phosphorylation. MAP kinase is activated by dual phosphorylation at tyrosine and threonine residues, occurring in a TEY motif, catalyzed by a protein- ...
The emergence of pseudokinases and pseudophosphatases has made phosphorylation cascades even more complicated. My lab focuses on various functional characteristics of the pseudophosphatase map kinase ...
In general, the serine/threonine phosphatases, protein phosphatase (PP ... indicating that enhanced and selective Akt phosphorylation of Ser473, but not of Thr308, is crucial for cardiomyocyte ...
In the PamStation®12 system, active kinases within a cellular/tissue lysate will phosphorylate specific peptide substrates within the microarray which survey the particular kinome (tyrosine or ...
Activation of the CDKs is through phosphorylation on a threonine residue by CDK-activating kinase (CAK). To evaluate if PKC is involved in the mechanism of CAK activation, the phosphorylation of CAK ...
kinase that selectively targets and inhibits ATR activity and blocks the downstream phosphorylation of the serine/threonine protein kinase checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1). Lloyd Segal, president of ...
