Protein phosphatase 1 binds to phospho-Ser-1394 of the macrophage-stimulating protein receptor.
The tyrosine kinase Ron, receptor for MSP (macrophage-stimulating protein), displays several serine residues of unknown functions. Using [(32)P]H(3)PO(4) metabolic labelling, we found that Ron is serine-phosphorylated and dephosphorylated in vitro by PP1 (protein phosphatase 1). PP1 associates with Ron obtained from cells of different origins. The association is stimulated by MSP or serum and i...
متن کاملSperm motility and MSP.
Form follows function, and this maxim is particularly true for the nematode sperm cell. Motility is essential for fertilization, and the process of spermatogenesis culminates in the production of a crawling spermatozoon with an extended pseudopod. However, the morphological similarity to amoeboid cells of other organisms is not conserved at the molecular level. Instead of utilizing the actin cy...
متن کاملMode of receptor binding and activation by plasminogen-related growth factors.
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and macrophage stimulating protein (MSP) are plasminogen-related kringle proteins that lost serine protease domain enzymatic activity and became ligands for cell surface tyrosine kinase receptors. They are activated by cleavage to disulfide-linked alphabeta chains. Surprisingly, despite structural similarities, the high affinity receptor binding ...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of the msp-1, msp-2, and glurp genes of Plasmodium falciparum isolates along the Thai-Myanmar borders.
OBJECTIVE To study the genetic diversity at the msp-1, msp-2, and glurp genes of Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) isolates from 3 endemic areas in Thailand: Tak, Kanchanaburi and Ranong provinces. METHODS A total of 144 P. falciparum isolates collected prior to treatment during January, 2012 to June, 2013 were genotyped. DNA was extracted; allele frequency and diversity of msp-1, msp-2, ...
متن کاملMSP Dynamics and Retraction in Nematode Sperm
Most eukaryotic cells can crawl over surfaces. In general, this motility requires three distinct actions: polymerization at the leading edge, adhesion to the substrate, and retraction at the rear. Recent in vitro experiments with extracts from spermatozoa from the nematode Ascaris suum suggest that retraction forces are generated by depolymerization of the Major Sperm Protein (MSP) cytoskeleton...
