The Mixed-Lineage Kinase DLK Is a Key Regulator of 3T3-L1 Adipocyte Differentiation
BACKGROUND The mixed-lineage kinase (MLK) family member DLK has been proposed to serve as a regulator of differentiation in various cell types; however, its role in adipogenesis has not been investigated. In this study, we used the 3T3-L1 preadipocyte cell line as a model to examine the function of DLK in adipocyte differentiation. METHODS AND FINDINGS Immunoblot analyses and kinase assays pe...
متن کاملThe mixed lineage kinase DLK is oligomerized by tissue transglutaminase during apoptosis.
Current evidence suggests that the mixed lineage kinase family member dual leucine zipper-bearing kinase (DLK) might play a significant role in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation, particularly during the process of tissue remodeling. To further explore this working model, we have investigated the regulation of host and recombinant DLK in NIH3T3 and COS-1 cells undergoing apoptosi...
متن کاملAssessing developmental roles of MKK4 and MKK7 in vitro
In vivo gene knockout studies in mice have revealed essential roles of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in embryogenesis, but due to early lethality of the knockout embryos, the underlying mechanisms and specific developmental programs regulated by the MAPK pathways have remained largely unknown. In vitro differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) have opened new possibil...
متن کاملDifferential activation of two JNK activators, MKK7 and SEK1, by MKN28-derived nonreceptor serine/threonine kinase/mixed lineage kinase 2.
MKN28-derived nonreceptor type of serine/threonine kinase/mixed lineage kinase 2 (MST/MLK2) directly phosphorylates and activates SEK1/MKK4/JNKK1/SKK1 in vitro, thereby acting as a mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase kinase kinase in the JNK/SAPK pathway (Hirai, S. -i., Katoh, M., Terada, M., Kyriakis, J. M., Zon, L. I., Rana, A., Avruch, J., and Ohno, S. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 15167-151...
متن کاملDistinct signaling properties of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases 4 (MKK4) and 7 (MKK7) in embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation.
Signal transduction pathways are integral components of the developmental regulatory network that guides progressive cell fate determination. MKK4 and MKK7 are upstream kinases of the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), responsible for channeling physiological and environmental signals to their cellular responses. Both kinases are essential for survival of mouse embryos, but because of e...
