Journal ArticleDOI

Wortmannin inactivates phosphoinositide 3-kinase by covalent modification of Lys-802, a residue involved in the phosphate transfer reaction.

TL;DR: The identification of the site of interaction of wortmannin on the catalytic subunit of PI 3-kinase, p110alpha is reported, providing the basis for the design of novel and specific inhibitors of an enzyme family, including PI kinases and ATM-related genes, that play a central role in many physiological processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distinct specificity in the recognition of phosphoinositides by the pleckstrin homology domains of dynamin and Bruton's tyrosine kinase.

TL;DR: A biosensor‐based assay was used here to probe interactions between PH domains and unilamellar liposomes containing different phospholipids and to demonstrate specificity for distinct phosphoinositides.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of protein secondary structure and active sites using the alignment of homologous sequences.

TL;DR: From the sequence conservation and the predicted secondary structure, many active site regions of enzymes can be located and the entire algorithm is fully automatic and is applicable to all structural classes of globular proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase signalling – which way to target?

TL;DR: Mechanistic data and mouse phenotypic analyses are summarised, and the possible success of therapeutic inhibition of distinct PI3K isoforms is discussed.
