Src kinase activation: A switched electrostatic network.
Src tyrosine kinases are essential in numerous cell signaling pathways, and improper functioning of these enzymes has been implicated in many diseases. The activity of Src kinases is regulated by conformational activation, which involves several structural changes within the catalytic domain (CD): the orientation of two lobes of CD; rearrangement of the activation loop (A-loop); and movement of...
متن کاملAn electrostatic network and long-range regulation of Src kinases.
The regulatory mechanism of Src tyrosine kinases includes conformational activation by a change in the catalytic domain tertiary structure and in domain-domain contacts between the catalytic domain and the SH2/SH3 regulatory domains. The kinase is activated when tyrosine phosphorylation occurs on the activation loop, but without phosphorylation of the C-terminal tail. Activation also occurs by ...
متن کاملsyk kinase activation by a src kinase-initiated activation loop phosphorylation chain reaction.
Activation of the syk tyrosine kinase occurs almost immediately following engagement of many types of antigen receptors, including Fc receptors, but the mechanism through which syk is activated is currently unclear. Here we demonstrate that Fc receptor-induced syk activation occurs as the result of phosphorylation of the syk activation loop by both src family kinases and other molecules of acti...
متن کاملSrc Kinase Conformational Activation: Thermodynamics, Pathways, and Mechanisms
Tyrosine kinases of the Src-family are large allosteric enzymes that play a key role in cellular signaling. Conversion of the kinase from an inactive to an active state is accompanied by substantial structural changes. Here, we construct a coarse-grained model of the catalytic domain incorporating experimental structures for the two stable states, and simulate the dynamics of conformational tra...
متن کاملHsp90 inhibition transiently activates Src kinase and promotes Src-dependent Akt and Erk activation.
Hsp90 plays an essential role in maintaining stability and activity of its clients, including oncogenic signaling proteins that regulate key signal transduction nodes. Hsp90 inhibitors interfere with diverse signaling pathways by destabilizing and attenuating activity of such proteins, and thus they exhibit antitumor activity. However, Hsp90 inhibition has recently been reported to activate Akt...
