Signal transduction: Gyrating protein kinases
Recently determined structures have linked histidine kinases with class II topoisomerases, the DNA repair enzyme MutL and the molecular chaperone Hsp90. This surprising finding may foreshadow a shift in our understanding of energy coupling mechanisms in signal transduction networks.
متن کاملActivated signal transduction kinases frequently occupy target genes.
Cellular signal transduction pathways modify gene expression programs in response to changes in the environment, but the mechanisms by which these pathways regulate populations of genes under their control are not entirely understood. We present evidence that most mitogen-activated protein kinases and protein kinase A subunits become physically associated with the genes that they regulate in th...
متن کاملSignal perception and transduction: the role of protein kinases.
Cells can react to environmental changes by transduction of extracellular signals, to produce intracellular responses. Membrane-impermeable signal molecules are recognized by receptors, which are localized on the plasma membrane of the cell. Binding of a ligand can result in the stimulation of an intrinsic enzymatic activity of its receptor or the modulation of a transducing protein. The modula...
متن کاملSignal Transduction by the JNK Group of MAP Kinases
et al., 1994). JNK is activated by treatment of cells with cytokines (e.g., TNF and IL-1) and by exposure of cells to many forms of environmental stress The purpose of this review is to summarize recent advances that have been made toward understanding the JNK signaling pathway. It is now known that JNK Cells respond to changes in the physical and chemical is required for embryonic morphogenesi...
متن کاملCa2+-dependent protein kinases and stress signal transduction in plants.
Stress responses in plants involve changes in the transcription of specific genes. The constitutively active mutants of two related Ca2+-dependent protein kinases (CDPK1 and CDPK1a) activate a stress-inducible promoter, bypassing stress signals. Six other plant protein kinases, including two distinct CDPKs, fail to mimic this stress signaling. The activation is abolished by a CDPK1 mutation in ...
