B-cell Signaling: Protein Kinase Cδ Puts the Brakes on
Protein kinase C (PKC) is one of the cell’s most important signal-transducing molecules, responding to a diversity of extracellular cues to regulate a number of central processes, including proliferation, metabolism, migration and death [1]. It is also one of the more complex signal transducers, constituting a family of serine/threonine kinases that can phosphorylate a multitude of cellular sub...
متن کاملSyntaphilin puts the brakes on axonal mitochondria
M itochondria move around inside neurons to make sure they localize to whichever part of these highly polarized cells they are needed in. For example, mitochondria accumulate in active synapses to facilitate synaptic transmission by providing energy and buffering calcium levels. Chen and Sheng describe how the organelles are immobilized in response to synaptic activity (1). Mitochondria are fer...
متن کاملDISC1 Puts the Brakes on Neurogenesis
The gene DISC1 (Disrupted-in-Schizophrenia 1) is a leading candidate gene for schizophrenia. In this issue, Duan et al. (2007) present evidence implicating DISC1 in the maturation and integration of newly generated neurons in the adult mouse hippocampus. Surprisingly, DISC1 appears to have opposite effects on neurogenesis during development and in adulthood.
متن کاملPP6 puts the brakes on spindle assembly
In Focus • THE JOURNAL OF CELL BIOLOGY D ifferent protein kinases control the assembly and function of the mitotic spindle. Although much is known about how these kinases are activated , what switches them off is less well understood. Zeng et al. now reveal that protein phosphatase 6 (PP6) inactivates the mitotic kinase Aurora A to achieve the precise level of activity required for accurate chr...
متن کاملPlant autophagy puts the brakes on cell death by controlling salicylic acid signaling.
It has long been recognized that autophagy in plants is important for nutrient recycling and plays a critical role in the ability of plants to adapt to environmental extremes such as nutrient deprivation. Recent reverse genetic studies, however, hint at other roles for autophagy, showing that autophagy defects in higher plants result in early senescence and excessive immunity-related programmed...
