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.

Identification of New JNK Substrate Using ATP Pocket Mutant JNK and a Corresponding ATP Analogue

TL;DR: Using modified JNK and its ATP analogue enables the detection of novel JNK substrates, including heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K, which is involved in transcription and post-transcriptional mRNA metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

ARIA/HRG regulates AChR epsilon subunit gene expression at the neuromuscular synapse via activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and Ras/MAPK pathway.

TL;DR: Assessment of the role of RTKs in ARIA signaling found that synaptic induction of AChR genes requires activation of both Ras/MAPK and PI3K signal transduction pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cloning and characterization of a member of the MST subfamily of Ste20-like kinases.

TL;DR: A second human homology of the yeast Ste20 protein kinase family is identified, which is most similar to the previously identified MST1 protein kinases, which suggests that there may be subfamilies of Ste20-likeprotein kinases and that MST2 may define one of these subfam families.

Routing MAP kinase cascades

TL;DR: In her Perspective, Elion discusses new results in this issue by Whitmarsh et al. and Schaeffer et al., who identify proteins that act as scaffolds in mouse cells, binding certain kinases to make a pathway for a specific function that is insulated from the rest of the cell.

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.
