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.

Global, in vivo, and site-specific phosphorylation dynamics in signaling networks.

TL;DR: A general mass spectrometric technology is developed and applied for identification and quantitation of phosphorylation sites as a function of stimulus, time, and subcellular location to provide a missing link in a global, integrative view of cellular regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A protein kinase involved in the regulation of inflammatory cytokine biosynthesis.

TL;DR: Production of interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor from stimulated human monocytes is inhibited by a new series of pyridinyl-imidazole compounds, suggesting that the CSBPs are critical for cytokine production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protein modules and signalling networks

TL;DR: This work highlights conserved protein domains that act as key regulatory participants in many of these different signalling pathways in multicellular organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mammalian thioredoxin is a direct inhibitor of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase (ASK) 1.

TL;DR: Evidence that Trx is a negative regulator of ASK1 suggests possible mechanisms for redox regulation of the apoptosis signal transduction pathway as well as the effects of antioxidants against cytokine‐ and stress‐induced apoptosis.

Phosphorylation of Xenopus mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase by MAP kinase kinase kinase and MAP kinase.

TL;DR: Xenopus 45-kDa mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase (MAPKK) is a serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase, which activates MAP kinases by phosphorylating its threonine and tyrosine residues.
Journal ArticleDOI

Raf-1 protein kinase is important for progesterone-induced Xenopus oocyte maturation and acts downstream of mos.

TL;DR: Raf-1 activity is required for progesterone-induced oocyte maturation and that Raf-1 is downstream of mosxe activity, which is suggested to be downstream of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase.

Specific association of activated MAP kinase kinase kinase (Raf) with the plasma membranes of ras-transformed retinal cells.

TL;DR: The results support the view that Ras and c-Raf interact with one another, but that neither c- Raf phosphorylation nor its interaction with GTP-Ras are alone sufficient for activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complementation of byr1 in fission yeast by mammalian MAP kinase kinase requires coexpression of Raf kinase.

TL;DR: It is reported here that expression of mammalian MAP kinase kinase alone fails to complement a byr1 mutant of S. pombe, however, when coexpressed with Raf kinase, this suggests that the pathways are functionally homologous and that Raf Kinase may directly phosphorylate and activate MAP kin enzyme kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI

The post-translational processing of ras p21 is critical for its stimulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase.

TL;DR: It is indicated that all the elements downstream of ras p21 necessary for the MAP kinase activation are cytosolic and that the post-translational processing of rAS p21 is important for theMAP kinaseactivation.
