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.

Journal ArticleDOI

A role for the Pkc1p/Mpk1p kinase cascade in the morphogenesis checkpoint.

TL;DR: A similar G2 delay can be triggered by mutations or drugs that specifically impair actin organization, indicating that it is probably actin disorganization itself, rather than specific environmental stresses, that triggers the delay.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis: the role of synoviocytes

TL;DR: Elucidation of gene mutations and detailed signal transduction pathways that are specific to RA as well as mechanisms of action of matrix-degrading enzymes may lead to development of a novel therapy for RA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ras-induced activation of Raf-1 is dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Raf-1 purified form Sf9 cells coinfected with baculovirus Ras but not Src could be inactivated by protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP-1B and that steady-state activated Ras is insufficient to activate B-Raf in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of the MEK/ERK Signaling Pathway Blocks a Subset of B Cell Responses to Antigen

TL;DR: Assessment of the role the Ras-mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway plays in several BCR-induced responses found activation of the MEK-ERK pathway is necessary for a subset of B cell responses to Ag.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Aspergillus nidulans MAPK Module AnSte11-Ste50-Ste7-Fus3 Controls Development and Secondary Metabolism

TL;DR: The data suggest that not only Fus3, but even the entire MAPK module complex of four physically interacting proteins, can migrate from plasma membrane to nuclear envelope.

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.
