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.

MAP kinase cascade is required for p27 downregulation and S phase entry in fibroblasts and epithelial cells.

TL;DR: Using an antisense approach, it is demonstrated that p27Kip1 may control cell cycle exit in both cell types and indicates that activation of the MAP kinase cascade is required for S phase entry and p27kip1 downregulation in fibroblasts and epithelial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Upregulation of Jun and Fos family members and permanent JNK activity lead to constitutive AP-1 activation in Theileria-transformed leukocytes.

TL;DR: Constant AP-1 transcriptional activity involves both an upregulation in the levels of Jun and Fos proteins and constitutive JNK activation, and the parasite-induced constitutive activation of JNK and subsequent c-Jun N-terminal phosphorylation.

Reduced Activation of RAF-1 and MAP Kinase by a Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Mutant Deficient in Stimulation of Phosphatidylinositol Hydrolysis

TL;DR: Comparison of phosphopeptide maps of Raf-1 immunoprecipitated from the two cell types activated by either aFGF or the phorbol ester suggests that Raf- 1 is phosphorylated by both Ras-dependent and PLC-γ-dependent mechanisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

TSH-activated signaling pathways in thyroid tumorigenesis.

TL;DR: This review examines the effects of increased cAMP levels and PKA activity during cell cycle progression and the role of this signaling pathway in thyroid tumor initiation and the activation of the PLC/PKC cascade by TSH in thyroid cells and the roles of these pathways in the TSH-mediated proliferation and tumorigenesis.

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.
