TLDR
A review of the non-catalytic functions of protein kinases can be found in this paper, where the authors consider pseudokinases, proteins that are devoid of enzymatic activity altogether and demonstrate that, beyond conventional notions of kinase function, catalytic activity can be dispensable for biological function.

Co-expression of recombinant RIPK3:MLKL complexes using the baculovirus-insect cell system.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors describe methods for co-expression of pseudokinases and their interactors in insect cells, as exemplified by the MLKL pseudokinase, which is the terminal effector in the necroptosis cell death pathway, and its upstream regulator kinase RIPK3.

Dynamics of protein kinases and pseudokinases by HDX-MS.

TL;DR: In this paper , a detailed protocol for collecting an HDX-MS dataset to study the impacts of small molecule binding to a pseudokinase domain is presented, along with a discussion of the methods that have provided insights into protein kinase dynamics and how they are used to answer questions in the kinase/pseudokinase field.

Redefining pseudokinases: A look at the untapped enzymatic potential of pseudokinases

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors discuss the recently characterized pseudokinases Selenoprotein O, Legionella effector SidJ, and SARS-CoV2 protein nsp12 which catalyze AMPylation, glutamylation and RNAylation.

The Protein Kinase Complement of the Human Genome

TL;DR: The protein kinase complement of the human genome is catalogued using public and proprietary genomic, complementary DNA, and expressed sequence tag sequences to provide a starting point for comprehensive analysis of protein phosphorylation in normal and disease states and a detailed view of the current state of human genome analysis through a focus on one large gene family.

The protein kinase family: conserved features and deduced phylogeny of the catalytic domains.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic mapping of the conserved protein kinase catalytic domains can serve as a useful first step in the functional characterization of these newly identified family members.

A unique clonal JAK2 mutation leading to constitutive signalling causes polycythaemia vera

TL;DR: A clonal and recurrent mutation in the JH2 pseudo-kinase domain of the Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) gene in most (> 80%) polycythaemia vera patients leads to constitutive tyrosine phosphorylation activity that promotes cytokine hypersensitivity and induces erythrocytosis in a mouse model.

RAF inhibitors prime wild-type RAF to activate the MAPK pathway and enhance growth

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ATP-competitive kinase inhibitors can have opposing functions as inhibitors or activators of signalling pathways, depending on the cellular context, which provides new insights into the therapeutic use of ATP- competitive RAF inhibitors.
