MAP kinase kinase kinase, MAP kinase kinase and MAP kinase.

TLDR
Recent advances have shown that in two MAP kinase pathways (the mating response pathway in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and receptor tyrosine kinase signalling), the small GTP binding protein ras p21 links membrane events to kinase pathway activation.

Visualizing cellular heterogeneity by quantifying the dynamics of MAPK activity in live mammalian cells with synthetic fluorescent biosensors.

TL;DR: This work has engineered a synthetic fluorescent substrate for human MAPKs (ERK, JNK and p38) that relocates from the nucleus to the cytoplasm when phosphorylated by the kinases, and demonstrates that this reporter displays an improved response compared to other relocation biosensors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of H-ras61L-specific signaling pathways does not require posttranslational processing of H-ras.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that H-ras61L-induced activation of the Raf/MEK/MAPK pathway, including recruitment of Raf to the plasma membrane and activation of Raf and MAPK, does not require C-terminal processing of H-ra61L.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogen-activated protein kinase regulates FSH-induced expression of tissue-type plasminogen activator through an activator protein 1 response element

TL;DR: FSH-induced ERK1/2 and p38 MAPK activation is capable of regulating tPA production in cultured primary GCs, and that the transcript factor AP-1 may be important in the regulation of FSH-regulated tPA expression.

Mutual Regulation of Receptor-Mediated Cell Signalling and Endocytosis: EGF Receptor System as an Example

Zhixiang Wang
TL;DR: Mutual Regulation of Receptor-Mediated Cell Signalling and Endocytosis: EGF Receptor System as an Example is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphoinositide signaling in unicellular eukaryotes.

TL;DR: The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in intracellular signaling and the relationship of the PI-pathway key enzymes with protein tyrosine kinases (PTK)-signaling and cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway are discussed.

Mammalian Ras interacts directly with the serine/threonine kinase Raf

TL;DR: Raf interacts with wild-type and activated Ras, but not with an effector domain mutant of Ras or with a dominant-interfering Ras mutant, and this interaction is dependent on GTP bound to Ras.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

cPLA2 is phosphorylated and activated by MAP kinase.

TL;DR: Treatment of cells with agents that stimulate the release of arachidonic acid causes increased serine phosphorylation and activation of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2).
Journal ArticleDOI

Phosphorylation of c- jun mediated by MAP kinases

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that mitogen-activated protein-serine (MAP) kinases (pp54 and pp42/44) specifically phosphorylate these sites and that their phosphorylation positively regulates the transacting activity of c-jun.
Journal ArticleDOI

Raf-1 activates MAP kinase-kinase.

TL;DR: Results indicate that c-Raf-1 is an immediate upstream activator of MAPK-K in vivo, the first physiological substrate of the c-raf-l protooncogene product to be identified.
