ERKs: A family of protein-serine/threonine kinases that are activated and tyrosine phosphorylated in response to insulin and NGF

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Cl cloning and characterization of two ERK1-related kinases, ERK2 and ERK3, are described and evidence suggesting that there are additional ERK family members is provided, which may serve as intermediates that depend on tyrosine phosphorylation to activate serine/threonineosphorylation cascades.

Insulin signalling and the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism

TL;DR: The epidemic of type 2 diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and tissues such as muscle, fat and liver become less responsive or resistant to insulin.

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathways: regulation and physiological functions.

TL;DR: Nonenzymatic mechanisms that impact MAP kinase functions and findings from gene disruption studies are highlighted and particular emphasis is on ERK1/2.

The MAPK signaling cascade.

TL;DR: This review highlights primarily the first MAPK cascade to be discovered that uses the MEK and ERK isoforms and describes their involvement in different cellular processes, and it is now known that signaling pathways initiated by phorbol esters, iono‐phors, heat shock, and liganda for seven transmembrane receptors use distinct MAPK cascades with little or no cross‐reactivity between them.

A protein kinase involved in the regulation of inflammatory cytokine biosynthesis.

TL;DR: Production of interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor from stimulated human monocytes is inhibited by a new series of pyridinyl-imidazole compounds, suggesting that the CSBPs are critical for cytokine production.

JNK1: A protein kinase stimulated by UV light and Ha-Ras that binds and phosphorylates the c-Jun activation domain

TL;DR: JNK1 is a component of a novel signal transduction pathway that is activated by oncoproteins and UV irradiation and its properties indicate that JNK1 activation may play an important role in tumor promotion.

DNA sequencing with chain-terminating inhibitors

TL;DR: A new method for determining nucleotide sequences in DNA is described, which makes use of the 2',3'-dideoxy and arabinon nucleoside analogues of the normal deoxynucleoside triphosphates, which act as specific chain-terminating inhibitors of DNA polymerase.

TL;DR: 5'-Noncoding sequences have been compiled from 699 vertebrate mRNAs and GCCA/GCCATGG emerges as the consensus sequence for initiation of translation in vertebrates.
