Structure of the catalytic and ubiquitin-associated domains of the protein kinase MARK/Par-1.
The Ser/Thr kinase MARK2 phosphorylates tau protein at sites that cause detachment from microtubules in Alzheimer neurofibrillary degeneration. Homologs of MARK2 include Par-1 in C. elegans and Drosophila, which generates embryonic polarity. We report the X-ray structure of the catalytic and ubiquitin-associated domains (UBA) of human MARK2. The activity was altered by mutations in the ATP bind...
متن کاملSuppression of tubulin polymerization by the LKB1-microtubule-associated protein/microtubule affinity-regulating kinase signaling.
LKB1, a tumor suppressor gene mutated in the Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase. Recent biochemical studies have shown that LKB1 activates 14 AMP-activated protein kinase-related kinases including MARKs (microtubule-associated protein/microtubule affinity-regulating kinases) that regulate microtubule dynamics. Here we show in vitro that LKB1 phosphorylates and act...
متن کاملMicrotubule-affinity regulating kinase (MARK) is tightly associated with neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer brain: a fluorescence resonance energy transfer study.
Paired helical filaments, the main structural components of the neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer disease, consist of phosphorylated tau protein. Because the levels and degree of phosphorylation are significantly higher in paired helical filament (PHF)-derived tau than in normal adult tau, and because phosphorylation of tau severely disrupts microtubule stability, it is postulated that tau p...
متن کاملpatterns and variations in native and non-native interlanguage pragmatic rating: effects of rater training, intercultural proficiency, and self-assessment
although there are studies on pragmatic assessment, to date, literature has been almost silent about native and non-native english raters’ criteria for the assessment of efl learners’ pragmatic performance. focusing on this topic, this study pursued four purposes. the first one was to find criteria for rating the speech acts of apology and refusal in l2 by native and non-native english teachers...
15 صفحه اولnew semigroup compactifications via the enveloping semigroups of associated flows
this thesis deals with the construction of some function algebras whose corresponding semigroup compactification are universal with respect to some properies of their enveloping semigroups. the special properties are of beigan a left zero, a left simple, a group, an inflation of the right zero, and an inflation of the rectangular band.
