AGC kinases in plant development and defense.
More than 100,000 publications demonstrate that AGC kinases are important regulators of growth, metabolism, proliferation, cell divison, survival and apoptosis in mammalian systems. Mutation and/or dysregulation of these kinases contribute to the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer and diabetes. Although AGC kinases are also present in plants, little is known about their funct...
متن کاملPlant evolution: AGC kinases tell the auxin tale.
The signaling molecule auxin is a central regulator of plant development, which instructs tissue and organ patterning, and couples environmental stimuli to developmental responses. Here, we discuss the function of PINOID (PID) and the phototropins, members of the plant specific AGCVIII protein kinases, and their role in triggering and regulating development by controlling PIN-FORMED (PIN) auxin...
متن کاملMULTI-AUTHOR REVIEW Role of AGC kinases in plant growth and stress responses
AGC kinases are important regulators of cell growth, metabolism, division, and survival in mammalian systems. Mutation or deregulation of members of this family of protein kinases contribute to the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer and diabetes. Although AGC kinases are conserved in the plant kingdom, little is known about their molecular functions and targets. Some of the b...
متن کاملMapping out the roles of MAP kinases in plant defense.
Arabidopsis contains 20 MAP kinase genes, but their roles in plant physiology have remained largely unknown because of a lack of mutants. Recent papers from two groups have shed new light on the function of two different MAP kinases. The Arabidopsis MPK4 gene appears to negatively regulate salicylic acid-mediated defense responses and positively regulate jasmonic acid-induced responses. The tob...
متن کاملTOR regulation of AGC kinases in yeast and mammals.
The TOR (target of rapamycin), an atypical protein kinase, is evolutionarily conserved from yeast to man. Pharmacological studies using rapamycin to inhibit TOR and yeast genetic studies have provided key insights on the function of TOR in growth regulation. One of the first bona fide cellular targets of TOR was the mammalian protein kinase p70 S6K (p70 S6 kinase), a member of a family of kinas...
