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.

Targeting the Non-Catalytic Functions: a New Paradigm for Kinase Drug Discovery?

TL;DR: The characterized noncatalytic functions of kinases are summarized, and the recent progress on developing small-molecule modulators of the noncatalyst functions of Kinase catalytic functions are highlighted.

Blocking Non-enzymatic Functions by PROTAC-Mediated Targeted Protein Degradation.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors summarize and analyze recent progress in blocking non-enzymatic functions of target proteins by PROTAC-mediated degradation, highlighting representative case studies and discussing the pharmacological features originating from inhibition of the non enzymatic function.

Chemical Probes for Understudied Kinases: Challenges and Opportunities.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight recent case studies illustrating the development of high-quality chemical probes for less-studied kinases and their application in target validation and discuss the associated challenges and opportunities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Looking lively: emerging principles of pseudokinase signaling.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors discuss recent structural data on conformational transitions and nucleotide binding by pseudokinases and discuss how biasing this conformational toggle may provide opportunities to target pseudokinase pharmacologically in disease.

Structure vs. Function of TRIB1—Myeloid Neoplasms and Beyond

TL;DR: The TRIB1 family of proteins as discussed by the authors plays important roles in differentiation, development, and oncogenesis, and is known to be accessible to small-molecule inhibitors in spite of its inability to bind ATP.

Protein polyglutamylation catalyzed by the bacterial calmodulin-dependent pseudokinase SidJ.

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the Legionella pneumophila effector protein, SidJ, in complex with the eukaryotic Ca2+-binding regulator, calmodulin (CaM), reveals that SidJ contains a protein kinase-like fold domain, which retains a majority of the characteristic kinase catalytic motifs, but SidJ fails to demonstrate kinase activity.

Substrate binding allosterically relieves autoinhibition of the pseudokinase TRIB1

TL;DR: A view of pseudokinase regulation with striking parallels to bona fide kinase regulation is offered—by means of the activation loop and αC helix—and the possibility of small molecules targeting either the activation “loop-in” or "loop-out” conformations of Tribbles pseudokinases is raised.

Divergent kinase regulates membrane ultrastructure of the Toxoplasma parasitophorous vacuole.

TL;DR: The founding member of the WNG1, phosphorylates parasite proteins that regulate membrane structure, and is therefore required for the proper biogenesis of the Toxoplasma parasitophorous vacuole, a structure essential for the parasite to cause disease.
