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.

Circadian activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase MAK-1 facilitates rhythms in clock-controlled genes in Neurospora crassa.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that the clock regulates the phosphorylation, and thus activation, of the MAPKs MAK-1 andMAK-2 in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa, and a link between rhythmic MAk-1 activity and circadian control of cellular growth is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Urea signaling in cultured murine inner medullary collecting duct (mIMCD3) cells involves protein kinase C, inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), and a putative receptor tyrosine kinase.

TL;DR: Data suggest that urea-inducible Egr-1 expression is a consequence of sequential PLC-gamma activation, IP3 release, and PKC activation, and the possibility of a cell surface or cytoplasmic Urea-sensing receptor tyrosine kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of the membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase cytoplasmic tail enhances tumor cell invasion and proliferation in three-dimensional collagen matrices

TL;DR: It is suggested that MT1-MMP surface action is regulated by phos pho ryl a tion at cytoplasmic tail residue Thr567 and that this modification plays a critical role in processes that are linked to tumor progression.

Sphingosine 1‐phosphate induces EGFR expression via Akt/NF‐κB and ERK/AP‐1 pathways in rat vascular smooth muscle cells

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in VSMCs, activation of Akt/NF‐κB and ERK/AP‐1 pathways independently regulated S1P‐induced EGFR expression inVSMCs.
Journal ArticleDOI

ERK2 Activation by Homocysteine in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells

TL;DR: It is found that homocysteine transiently activates MAP kinase (ERK2 isoform) in cultured VSMCs from chick embryos, and this findings support the hypothesis that homocrysteine may promote atherosclerosis by stimulation of growth promoting signal transduction pathways.

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.
