The role of tyrosine phosphorylation in regulation of signal transduction pathways in unicellular eukaryotes.
The review summarizes for the first time the current concepts of the role of tyrosine phosphorylation in regulation of signal transduction pathways in unicellular eukaryotes. Evolutionary concepts are developed about the origin of protein tyrosine kinases (PTK)-signaling.
متن کاملTyrosine phosphorylation of the erythropoietin receptor: role for differentiation and mitogenic signal transduction.
The erythropoietin (Epo) receptor belongs to the cytokine receptor superfamily. Although the cytokine receptors do not possess a tyrosine kinase consensus sequence in the intracellular domain, rapid stimulation of a tyrosine kinase activity occurs after activation by the ligand. We and others have shown that Epo induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of its cognate receptor as well as phosphoryla...
متن کاملEvaluation of the role of TLR4 in endotoxin-induced hepatic encephalopathy in rats with biliary cirrhosis
Background: Hepatic encephalopathy is defined as a neuropsychiatric brain dysfunction in acute or chronic liver failure. Infection and inflammation have crucial role in its pathophysiology. The purpose of our study was to demonstrate the relationship between toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression and the encephalopathy induced with endotoxin in biliary cirrhotic rats. Methods: The present stud...
متن کاملProtein phosphorylation and its role in archaeal signal transduction
Reversible protein phosphorylation is the main mechanism of signal transduction that enables cells to rapidly respond to environmental changes by controlling the functional properties of proteins in response to external stimuli. However, whereas signal transduction is well studied in Eukaryotes and Bacteria, the knowledge in Archaea is still rather scarce. Archaea are special with regard to pro...
متن کاملRole of protein phosphorylation in neuronal signal transduction.
Protein phosphorylation is involved in the regulation of a wide variety of physiological processes in the nervous system. Studies in which purified protein kinases or kinase inhibitors have been microinjected into defined cells while a specific response is monitored have demonstrated that protein phosphorylation is both necessary and sufficient to mediate responses of excitable cells to extrace...
