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.

Nuclear Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Activation by Protein Kinase Cζ during Reoxygenation after Ischemic Hypoxia

TL;DR: Observations indicate that PKCζ, which is activated by phosphoinositide 3-kinase, induces MAPK activation through MEK in the nucleus during reoxygenation after ischemic hypoxia.

Identification of Ste4 as a potential regulator of Byr2 in the sexual response pathway of Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

TL;DR: Ste4 contains a leucine zipper and is capable of homotypic interaction and has regions of homology with STE50, an S. cerevisiae protein required for sexual differentiation that it is shown can bind to STE11.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integrin β1 is required for the invasive behaviour but not proliferation of squamous cell carcinoma cells in vivo

TL;DR: In vitro analysis revealed that integrin β1 is required for cell adhesion, cell spreading and invasion, but not for cell growth or activation of FAK and ERK signalling in vitro or in vivo, and stably knocked-down integrinβ1 expression in the VSCC cell line A431 confirmed this.

Involvement of p42/p44 MAPK, JNK, and NF-kappaB in IL-1beta-induced ICAM-1 expression in human pulmonary epithelial cells.

TL;DR: Activation of p42/p44 MAPK and JNK cascades, at least in part, mediated through NF‐κB pathway is essential for IL‐1β‐induced ICAM‐1 gene expression in A549 cells, providing new insight into the mechanisms of IL-1β action that cytokines may promote inflammatory responses in the airway disease.

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.
