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.

Mitogen-activated protein kinases and their role in regulation of cellular processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on characterization of these MAPK cascades in terms of their distribution and biological role in some pathological processes (apoptosis, hypertrophy) with a special orientation on the role of MAPKs in cardiovascular system during ischemia/reperfusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

ERKs and p38 kinases mediate ultraviolet B-induced phosphorylation of histone H3 at serine 10.

TL;DR: It is shown that both ERKs and p38 kinase may mediate ultraviolet B-induced phosphorylation of H3 at serine 10, and incubation of active ERK2 or p38 Kinase with H3 protein resulted in phosphorylated H3 in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Cascade Required for Regulation of Development and Secondary Metabolism in Neurospora crassa

TL;DR: The results implicate the MAK-1 pathway in regulation of development and secondary metabolism in filamentous fungi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade by pertussis toxin-sensitive and -insensitive pathways in cultured ventricular cardiomyocytes.

TL;DR: FCS may stimulate the MAPK cascade through both Gi/G(o)-linked and PTX-insensitive pathways of MAPK activation exist in neonatal ventricular myocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the Sap-1a Transcription Factor by the c-Jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK) Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase

TL;DR: The data suggest that Sap-1a plays an important role in the nuclear response elicited by cellular stress, and JNK-1 was inhibited by the p38MAPK in RK13 cells, possibly by competition for a common upstream activator.

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.
