Substrate specificity of protein kinase C inhibitors.
In the August issue of TiPS, Epand and Lester analysed the effect of the physicochemical properties of the membrane on protein kinase C activity. In addition to those substrates discussed that require the presence of Ca2+ and phospholipids, other substrates can be phosphorylated in the absence of these activators. It is possible that this differential substrate requirement could be exploited ph...
متن کاملIsoenzyme specificity of bisindolylmaleimides, selective inhibitors of protein kinase C.
The protein kinase C (PKC) family of isoenzymes is believed to mediate a wide range of signal-transduction pathways in many different cell types. A series of bisindolylmaleimides have been evaluated as inhibitors of members of the conventional PKC family (PKCs-alpha, -beta, -gamma) and of a representative of the new, Ca(2+)-independent, PKC family, PKC-epsilon. In contrast with the indolocarbaz...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity and inhibitors of LRRK2, a protein kinase mutated in Parkinson's disease.
The LRRK2 (leucine-rich repeat protein kinase-2) is mutated in a significant number of Parkinson's disease patients, but little is known about its regulation and function. A common mutation changing Gly2019 to serine enhances catalytic activity, suggesting that small-molecule inhibitors might have utility in treating Parkinson's disease. We employed various approaches to explore the substrate-s...
متن کاملSpecificity of the high affinity interaction of protein kinase C with a physiological substrate, myristoylated alanine-rich protein kinase C substrate.
Although myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS), has been employed as an indicator for the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) in intact cells, little is known about its specificity for PKC family members. To address this question, we partially purified human MARCKS from baculovirus-infected cells and compared the kinetic parameters for phosphorylation by PKC isozymes, conventi...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity and activity regulation of protein kinase MELK.
Maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase (MELK) is a protein Ser/Thr kinase that has been implicated in stem cell renewal, cell cycle progression, and pre-mRNA splicing, but its substrates and regulation are not yet known. We show here that MELK has a rather broad substrate specificity and does not appear to require a specific sequence surrounding its (auto)phosphorylation sites. We have mapped...
