Protein tyrosine phosphatases: a diverse family of intracellular and transmembrane enzymes

TL;DR: A hypothesis is proposed explaining how phosphatases might act synergistically with the kinases to elicit a full physiological response, without regard to the state of phosphorylation of the target proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanism of inhibition of protein-tyrosine phosphatases by vanadate and pervanadate

TL;DR: The results show that vanadate is a competitive inhibitor for the protein-tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B, with a Ki of 0.38 ± 0.02 μM, and reducing agents such as dithiothreitol that are used in PTP assays to keep the catalytic cysteine reduced and active were found to convert pervanadate rapidly toVanadate.

Regulation of NMDA receptors by tyrosine kinases and phosphatases.

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that in mammalian central neurons tyrosine phosphorylation regulates the function of the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor, a subtype of excitatory amino-acid receptor, which may be important in neuronal development, plasticity and toxicity.

Use of vanadate as protein-phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the use of vanadate as protein-phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, which is conveniently separable from the phosphoseryl and phosphothreonyl phosphatases activities inhibited by EDTA and fluoride.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of the major protein-tyrosine-phosphatases of human placenta.

TL;DR: Peptide mapping following digestion with Achromobacter protease I or Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease supported the view that, whereas protein-tyrosine-phosphatase subtypes 1A and 1B are different, their soluble and particulate counterparts are closely related structurally and are distinct from serine/threonine phosphatases 1 and 2A.

Cleavage of Structural Proteins during the Assembly of the Head of Bacteriophage T4

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products.

TL;DR: Using an improved method of gel electrophoresis, many hitherto unknown proteins have been found in bacteriophage T4 and some of these have been identified with specific gene products as mentioned in this paper.

Identification of phosphotyrosine as a product of epidermal growth factor-activated protein kinase in A-431 cell membranes.

TL;DR: Epidermal growth factor-enhanced protein kinase activity in plasma membrane preparations of A-431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells was shown to involve the phosphorylation of tyrosine residues, which was detected in both endogenous membrane proteins and in histone when added as an exogenous protein substrate.

Insulin stimulates the phosphorylation of the 95,000-dalton subunit of its own receptor

TL;DR: Phosphorylation was specifically stimulated by insulin in a dose-dependent fashion after 1 and 15 minutes of hormone treatment, whereas human growth hormone was without effect, suggesting this phosphorylation may be a very early event in insulin action.

Vanadate is a potent (Na,K)-ATPase inhibitor found in ATP derived from muscle.

TL;DR: A potent (Na,K)-ATPase inhibitor purified from "Sigma Grade* ATP" has been identified as vanadium using electron probe microanalysis and confirmed by microwave-induced emission spectroscopy and electron paramagnetic resonanceSpectroscopy.
