The PAR-aPKC system: lessons in polarity.

TL;DR: Accumulating evidence has revealed that mechanisms by which the asymmetrically localized components of the PAR-aPKC system are linked with other cellular machinery for developing polarity are divergent depending on the cell type.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein Kinase C δ Activates the MEK-ERK Pathway in a Manner Independent of Ras and Dependent on Raf

TL;DR: Results demonstrate that activation of PKCδ is sufficient for the activation of MEK and ERK and that the pathway operates in a manner dependent on c-Raf and independent of Ras.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binding of a novel SMG-1–Upf1–eRF1–eRF3 complex (SURF) to the exon junction complex triggers Upf1 phosphorylation and nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

TL;DR: The SMG-1-mediated phosphorylation of Upf1 occurs on the association of SURF with EJC, which provides the link between the EJC and recognition of PTCs and triggers NMD.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Atypical PKC Directly Associates and Colocalizes at the Epithelial Tight Junction with ASIP, a Mammalian Homologue of Caenorhabditis elegans Polarity Protein PAR-3

TL;DR: A role for a protein complex containing ASIP and aPKC in the establishment and/or maintenance of epithelial cell polarity is suggested and its asymmetric distribution in polarized cells from worm embryo to mammalian-differentiated cells may mean that the complex functions generally in the organization of cellular asymmetry.
