New roles for the LKB1-NUAK pathway in controlling myosin phosphatase complexes and cell adhesion.

TL;DR: A new function for LKB1 is defined in decreasing cell adhesion through inhibition of myosin phosphatase activity and indicate that NUAK1 may contribute to tumor invasion by activating cytoskeletal motor proteins and thereby promoting cell detachment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Site-specific proteasome phosphorylation controls cell proliferation and tumorigenesis

TL;DR: It is shown that the proteasome is dynamically phosphorylated during the cell cycle at Thr 25 of the 19S subunit Rpt3, and dual-specificity tyrosine-regulated kinase 2 (DYRK2) is the primary kinase that phosphorylates Rpt 3-Thr25, leading to enhanced substrate translocation and degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ancient drug curcumin impedes 26S proteasome activity by direct inhibition of dual-specificity tyrosine-regulated kinase 2

TL;DR: Curcumin perturbs 26S proteasome activity via DYRK2 inhibition in various cancer cells and in the mouse cancer model leading to impairment of cell proliferation and reduction of cancer burden in mice, revealing an unexpected role of curcumin in DyrK2-proteasome inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of WZ4003 and HTH-01-015 as selective inhibitors of the LKB1-tumour-suppressor-activated NUAK kinases

TL;DR: The results of the present study indicate that WZ4003 and HTH-01-015 will serve as useful chemical probes to delineate the biological roles of the NUAK kinases.
