Properties of neurofilament protein kinase.
Neurofilament (NF) protein kinase, partially purified from NF preparations [Toru-Delbauffe & Pierre (1983) FEBS Lett. 162, 230-234], was found to be distinct from both the casein kinase present in NFs and the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase which is able to phosphorylate NFs. NF-kinase phosphorylated the three NF protein components. The amount of phosphate incorporated per molecule was high...
متن کاملNeuronal cdc2-like kinase: a cdc2-related protein kinase with predominantly neuronal expression.
Recent studies have shown that there exists a family of protein kinases structurally and functionally related to the yeast cell cycle regulatory kinase cdc2 [Meyerson, M., Faha, B., Su, L.-K., Harlow, E. & Tsai, L.-H. (1991) Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 56, 177-186 and Meyerson, M., Enders, G. H., Wu, C.-L., Su, L.-K., Gorka, C., Nelson, C., Harlow, E. & Tsai, L.-H. (1992) EMBO J. 11, ...
متن کاملTTBK2: A Tau Protein Kinase beyond Tau Phosphorylation
Tau tubulin kinase 2 (TTBK2) is a kinase known to phosphorylate tau and tubulin. It has recently drawn much attention due to its involvement in multiple important cellular processes. Here, we review the current understanding of TTBK2, including its sequence, structure, binding sites, phosphorylation substrates, and cellular processes involved. TTBK2 possesses a casein kinase 1 (CK1) kinase doma...
متن کاملGlycogen synthase kinase-3β2 has lower phosphorylation activity to tau than glycogen synthase kinase-3β1.
Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) is a serine/threonine kinase that phosphorylate protein substrates involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD), such as microtubule-associated protein tau and amyloid precursor protein (APP). GSK-3β consists of two splice variants; the major short form (GSK-3β1) distributes in many organs and the minor long form (GSK-3β2), whose structural difference is the insert ...
متن کاملLearning induces a CDC2-related protein kinase, KKIAMRE.
To elucidate molecular mechanisms in learning and memory, we analyzed expression of mRNAs in brains of rabbits undergoing eyeblink conditioning. Infusion of the transcription inhibitor actinomycin D into the cerebellar interpositus nucleus reversibly blocked learning but not performance of the conditioned response. Differential display PCR analysis of cerebellar interpositus RNAs from trained a...
