A chemical-genetic method for the generation of target-specific protein kinase inhibitors has been developed recently. This strategy utilizes a functionally silent active-site mutation to sensitize a target kinase to inhibition by a small molecule that does not inhibit wild-type kinases. Tyrosine and serine/threonine kinases are equally amenable to the drug-sensitization approach, which has been used to generate selective inhibitors of mutant Src-family kinases, Abl-family kinases, cyclin-dependent kinases, mitogen-activated kinases, p21-activated kinases and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinases. The designed inhibitors are specific for the sensitized kinase in a cellular background where the wild-type kinase has been inactivated. By these means, kinase-sensitization has been used systematically to generate and analyze conditional alleles of several yeast protein kinases in vivo. 相似文献

Protein kinases are classified by the target amino acid in their substrates. Those protein kinases that phosphorylate hydroxyamino acids comprise two groups, the protein-tyrosine and protein-serine/threonine kinases, which, until recently, had been thought to be mutually exclusive. However, several new protein kinases have been discovered that, by the criterion of primary structure, would be classified as protein-serine/threonine kinases but which, surprisingly, are able to phosphorylate tyrosine residues. Even more surprising, there are reports of protein kinases that are capable of phosphorylating both tyrosine and serine/threonine residues. We review and discuss recent developments concerning these 'dal-specificity' protein kinases. 相似文献

Calmodulin-binding protein kinases in plants 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Many calmodulin-binding protein kinases have been isolated from plants. Plant calmodulin-binding protein kinases are novel protein kinases that differ from calcium-dependent protein kinases in many important respects. Calmodulin-binding protein kinases are likely to be crucial mediators of responses to diverse endogenous and environmental cues in plants. In this update, we review the structure, regulation, expression and possible functions of plant calmodulin-binding protein kinases. 相似文献

Electrophoresis and subsequent assay of the enzyme directly onto the gel has allowed a rapid and quantitative characterization of the cyclic AMP-dependent and -independent histone kinases, protamine, phosvitin and casein kinases in HT 29 and HRT 18 cells. The technique has been applied to soluble extracts from cytoplasmic and nuclear fraction prepared in the presence and absence of neutral detergent. A more precise identification of these enzymes has been possible by analysing enzyme fractions obtained after ion-exchange chromatography of the above extracts. The protein kinase equipment of both cell lines was found to be identical (11 major components) but with different relative proportions of several enzymes. In cytoplasmic extracts: VIP activates only the type I, cytosolic, (band 4) and the type II, membrane-bound, (bands 6 and 8) cyclic AMP-dependent histone kinases. These enzymes account, respectively, for 34 and 55% of the total histone kinases in HT 29 and HRT 18 cells. The cyclic AMP-independent histone kinases (band 1,2,5 and 7) also phosphorylate protamine; band 5 was found 3o be much higher (4-fold) in HT 29 cells. In addition, two casein/phosvitin kinases have been identified in both cell lines with phosphorylating activity similar to the total histone kinases. In the nuclear extract two cyclic AMP-independent histone kinases have been found with electrophoretic mobility differing from the cytoplasmic enzymes. Also, two phosvitin/casein kinases specifically nuclear, due to their chromatographical and electrophoretical behaviour, have been characterized. 相似文献

Reversible protein phosphorylation is a major mechanism in the regulation of fundamental signalling events in all living organisms. Bacteria have been shown to possess a versatile repertoire of protein kinases, including histidine and aspartic acid kinases, serine/threonine kinases, and more recently tyrosine and arginine kinases. Tyrosine phosphorylation is today recognized as a key regulatory device of bacterial physiology, linked to exopolysaccharide production, virulence, stress response and DNA metabolism. However, bacteria have evolved tyrosine kinases that share no resemblance with their eukaryotic counterparts and are unique in exploiting the ATP/GTP-binding Walker motif to catalyse autophosphorylation and substrate phosphorylation on tyrosine. These enzymes, named BY-kinases (for Bacterial tYrosine kinases), have been identified in a majority of sequenced bacterial genomes, and to date no orthologues have been found in Eukarya. The aim of this review was to present the most recent knowledge about BY-kinases by focusing primarily on their evolutionary origin, structural and functional aspects, and emerging regulatory potential based on recent bacterial phosphoproteomic studies. 相似文献

Background
As key regulators of mitotic chromosome segregation, the Aurora family of serine/threonine kinases play an important role in cell division. Abnormalities in Aurora kinases have been strongly linked with cancer, which has lead to the recent development of new classes of anti-cancer drugs that specifically target the ATP-binding domain of these kinases. From an evolutionary perspective, the species distribution of the Aurora kinase family is complex. Mammals uniquely have three Aurora kinases, Aurora-A, Aurora-B, and Aurora-C, while for other metazoans, including the frog, fruitfly and nematode, only Aurora-A and Aurora-B kinases are known. The fungi have a single Aurora-like homolog. Based on the tacit assumption of orthology to human counterparts, model organism studies have been central to the functional characterization of Aurora kinases. However, the ortholog and paralog relationships of these kinases across various species have not been rigorously examined. Here, we present comprehensive evolutionary analyses of the Aurora kinase family. 相似文献7.

Most signal transduction pathways in humans are regulated by protein kinases through phosphorylation of their protein substrates. Typical eukaryotic protein kinases are of two major types: those that phosphorylate‐specific sequences containing tyrosine (~90 kinases) and those that phosphorylate either serine or threonine (~395 kinases). The highly conserved catalytic domain of protein kinases comprises a smaller N lobe and a larger C lobe separated by a cleft region lined by the activation loop. Prior studies find that protein tyrosine kinases recognize peptide substrates by binding the polypeptide chain along the C‐lobe on one side of the activation loop, while serine/threonine kinases bind their substrates in the cleft and on the side of the activation loop opposite to that of the tyrosine kinases. Substrate binding structural studies have been limited to four families of the tyrosine kinase group, and did not include Src tyrosine kinases. We examined peptide‐substrate binding to Src using paramagnetic‐relaxation‐enhancement NMR combined with molecular dynamics simulations. The results suggest Src tyrosine kinase can bind substrate positioning residues C‐terminal to the phosphoacceptor residue in an orientation similar to serine/threonine kinases, and unlike other tyrosine kinases. Mutagenesis corroborates this new perspective on tyrosine kinase substrate recognition. Rather than an evolutionary split between tyrosine and serine/threonine kinases, a change in substrate recognition may have occurred within the TK group of the human kinome. Protein tyrosine kinases have long been therapeutic targets, but many marketed drugs have deleterious off‐target effects. More accurate knowledge of substrate interactions of tyrosine kinases has the potential for improving drug selectivity. 相似文献

Recent evidence indicates that site-specific crosstalk between O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation and the O-GlcNAcylation of kinases play an important role in regulating cell signaling. However, relatively few kinases have been analyzed for O-GlcNAcylation. Here, we identify additional kinases that are substrates for O-GlcNAcylation using an in vitro OGT assay on a functional kinase array. Forty-two kinases were O-GlcNAcylated in vitro, representing 39% of the kinases on the array. In addition, we confirmed the in vivo O-GlcNAcylation of three identified kinases. Our results suggest that O-GlcNAcylation may directly regulate a substantial number of kinases and illustrates the increasingly complex relationship between O-GlcNAcylation and phosphorylation in cellular signaling. 相似文献

Protein kinases have been important targets for antitumor targets due to their key roles in regulating multiple cell signaling pathways. Numerous compounds containing flavonoid scaffold as an indispensable anchor have been found to be potent inhibitors of protein kinases. Some of these flavonoids have been in clinical research as protein kinases inhibitors. Thus, the present review mainly focuses on the structural requirement for anticancer potential of flavone derivatives targeting several key serine/threonine protein kinases. This information may provide an opportunity to scientists of medicinal chemistry to design multi-functional flavone derivatives for the treatment of cancer. 相似文献

Cytosolic PIM kinases are the members of serine/ threonine family play a crucial role in the cancer progression and development. Overexpression of PIM kinases is observed in various types of cancers including prostate, hematological, pancreatic, breast carcinoma and likewise. PIM kinases have now been considered as limelight target for the discovery of new molecules as novel anticancer agents as no drug is in the market targeting PIM kinases. In the last two decades, numerous PIM kinase inhibitors have been developed and few of them were in clinical trial phases but could not pass the pipeline of the clinical trials. The present comprehensive review intends to cover biological and the structural aspects of PIM kinases and also medicinal chemistry of PIM inhibitors developed in recent years. 相似文献

Synthetic peptides such as P60stc autophosphorylation site peptides and angiotensin are indiscriminately phosphorylated by protein tyrosine kinases. The observation has led to the general belief that protein tyrosine kinases are highly promiscuous, displaying littlein vitro site specificity. In recent years, evidence has been accumulating to indicate that such a belief requires close examination. Synthetic peptides showing high substrate activity for specific groups of protein tyrosine kinases have been obtained. Systematic modification of certain substrate peptides suggests that kinase substrate determinants reside with specific amino acid residues proximal to the target tyrosine. A number of protein kinases have been shown to be regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation at specific sites by highly specific protein tyrosine kinases. These and other selected biochemical studies that contribute to the evolving view ofin vitro substrate specificity of protein tyrosine kinases are reviewed. 相似文献

Plant genomes encode a variety of protein kinases, and while some are functional homologues of animal and fungal kinases,
others have a novel structure. This review focuses on three groups of unusual membrane-associated plant protein kinases: receptor-like
protein kinases (RLKs), calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs), and histidine protein kinases.
Animal RLKs have a putative extracellular domain, a single transmembrane domain, and a protein kinase domain. In plants, all
of the RLKs identified thus far have serine/threonine signature sequences, rather than the tyrosine-specific signature sequences
common to animals. Recent genetic experiments reveal that some of these plant kinases function in development and pathogen
resistance.
The CDPKs of plants and protozoans are composed of a single polypeptide with a protein kinase domain fused to a C-terminal
calmodulin-like domain containing four calcium-binding EF hands. No functional plant homologues of protein kinase C or Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase have been identified, and no animal or fungal CDPK homologues have been identified.
Recently, histidine kinases have been shown to participate in signaling pathways in plants and fungi. ETR1, an Arabidopsis histidine kinase homologue with three transmembrane domains, functions as a receptor for the plant hormone ethylene. G-protein-coupled
receptors, which often serve as hormone receptors in animal systems, have not yet been identified in plants.

Eukaryotic protein kinases, containing a conserved catalytic domain, represent one of the largest superfamilies of the eukaryotic proteins and play distinct roles in cell signaling and diseases. Near completion of rat genome sequencing project enables the evaluation of a near complete set of rat protein kinases. Publicly accessible genetic sequence databases were searched for rat protein kinases, and 515 eukaryotic protein kinases, 40 atypical protein kinases and 45 kinase pseudogenes were identified. The rat has 509 putative protein kinases orthologous to human kinases. Unlike microtubule affinity-regulating kinases, the rat has a few more kinases, in addition to the orthologous pairs of mouse kinases. The comparison of 11 different eukaryotic species revealed the evolutionary conservation of this diverse family of proteins. The evolutionary rate studies of human disease and non-disease associated kinases suggested that relatively uniform selective pressures have been applied to these kinase classes. This bioinformatic study of the rat protein kinases provides a suitable framework for further characterization of the functional and structural properties of these protein kinases. 相似文献

MAP kinases (MAPK) are serine/threonine kinases which are activated by a dual phosphorylation on threonine and tyrosine residues. Their specific upstream activators, called MAP kinase kinases (MAPKK), constitute a new family of dual-specific threonine/tyrosine kinases, which in turn are activated by upstream MAP kinase kinase kinases (MAPKKK). These three kinase families are successively stimulated in a cascade of activation described in various species such as mammals, frog, fly, worm or yeast.In mammals, the MAP kinase module lies on the signaling pathway triggered by numerous agonists such as growth factors, hormones, lymphokines, tumor promoters, stress factors, etc. Targets of MAP kinase have been characterize tin all subcellular compartments. In yeast, genetic epistasis helped to characterize the presence of several MAP kinase modules in the same system. By complementation tests, the relationships existing between phylogenetically distant members of each kinase family have been described. The roles of the MAP kinase cascade have been analyzed by engineering various mutations in the kinases of the module. The MAP kinase cascade has thus been implicated in higher eukaryotes in cell growth, cell fate and differentiation, and in low eukaryotes, in conjugation, osmotic stress, cell wall constrct and mitosis. 相似文献

X-ray structural studies of MAP kinases and MAP kinase module components are elucidating how kinase activity is regulated and how specificity of signaling is conferred. In the past decade, MAP kinases have been crystallized in their active, phosphorylated forms or low-activity, unphosphorylated forms, as well as in the presence of binding partners such as docking peptides and inhibitors. Crystallization has been achieved via diverse strategies including control of phosphorylation, coding sequence modification, incorporation of tags for purification, and use of a variety of cell-types for protein expression. Recently, interest has been focused on use of crystallography for lead optimization in the development for pharmacological inhibitors on MAP kinases. Further, some success has been gained in crystallizing the MAP kinase activators MAP2Ks and MAP3K kinase domains. This review describes the key methods that have been utilized to crystallize MAP kinases and MAP kinase pathway components. 相似文献

Bacterial histidine kinases have been proposed as targets for the discovery of new antibiotics, yet few specific inhibitors of bacterial histidine kinases have been reported. We report here a novel thienopyridine (TEP) compound that inhibits bacterial histidine kinases competitively with respect to ATP but does not comparably inhibit mammalian serine/threonine kinases. Although it partitions into membranes and does not inhibit the growth of bacterial or mammalian cells, TEP could serve as a starting compound for a new class of histidine kinase inhibitors with antibacterial activity. 相似文献

Protein phosphorylation is one of the most ubiquitous and important types of post-translational modification for the regulation of cell function. The importance of two-component histidine kinases in bacteria, fungi and plants has long been recognised. In mammals, the regulatory roles of serine/threonine and tyrosine kinases have attracted most attention. However, the existence of histidine kinases in mammalian cells has been known for many years, although little is still understood about their biological roles by comparison with the hydroxyamino acid kinases. In addition, with the exception of NDP kinase, other mammalian histidine kinases remain to be identified and characterised. NDP kinase is a multifunctional enzyme that appears to act as a protein histidine kinase and as such, to regulate the activation of some G-proteins. Histone H4 histidine kinase activity has been shown to correlate with cellular proliferation and there is evidence that it is an oncodevelopmental marker in liver. This review mainly concentrates on describing recent research on these two types of histidine kinase. Developments in methods for the detection and assay of histidine kinases, including mass spectrometric methods for the detection of phosphohistidines in proteins and in-gel kinase assays for histone H4 histidine kinases, are described. Little is known about inhibitors of mammalian histidine kinases, although there is much interest in two-component histidine kinase inhibitors as potential antibiotics. The inhibition of a histone H4 histidine kinase by genistein is described and that of two-component histidine kinase inhibitors of structurally-related mammalian protein kinases. In addition, recent findings concerning mammalian protein histidine phosphatases are briefly described. 相似文献

The key role of kinases in signal transduction and cell growth regulation has been a long standing interest among academics and the pharmaceutical industry. Recombinant enzymes have been used to understand the mechanism of action as well as to screen for chemical inhibitors. The baculo-insect system has been the primary method used to obtain soluble and active kinases, usually producing a mixture of the kinase in various phosphorylation states in different conformations. To obtain a homogenous preparation of non-phosphorylated kinases is critical for biochemical, biophysical and kinetic studies aimed at understanding the mechanism of kinase activation. Taking advantage of the eukaryotic expression property of insect cells, we were able to obtain high yield expression of non-phosphorylated protein tyrosine kinases BTK, JAK3 and Eph2A through coexpression with the tyrosine phosphatase YopH, which suggests that this method can be applied to protein tyrosine kinases in general. We have demonstrated that the fully non-phosphorylated BTK obtained with this method is suitable for various biochemical and kinetic studies. 相似文献
