Transcriptional regulation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGK-II) in chondrocytes.
The C-type natriuretic peptide/natriuretic peptide receptor-B/cGMP pathway plays an important role in the regulation of endochondral ossification. In chondrocytes, the physiological effect of cGMP is mediated primarily by the activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGK-II). In this study, we investigated the transcriptional regulation of cGK-II in chondrocytes. The expression pattern of...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of GSK-3beta by cGMP-dependent protein kinase II promotes hypertrophic differentiation of murine chondrocytes.
cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGKII; encoded by PRKG2) is a serine/threonine kinase that is critical for skeletal growth in mammals; in mice, cGKII deficiency results in dwarfism. Using radiographic analysis, we determined that this growth defect was a consequence of an elongated growth plate and impaired chondrocyte hypertrophy. To investigate the mechanism of cGKII-mediated chondrocyte hy...
متن کاملAutophosphorylation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase type II.
Cyclic nucleotides are shown to stimulate the autophosphorylation of type II cGMP-dependent protein kinase (cGK) on multiple sites. Mass spectrometric based analyses, using a quadrupole time-of-flight-mass spectrometry instrument revealed that cGMP stimulated the in vitro phosphorylation of residues Ser110 and Ser114, and, at a slow rate, of Ser126 and Thr109 or Ser117, all located in the autoi...
متن کاملcGMP regulated protein kinases (cGK).
cGMP-dependent protein kinases (cGK) are serine/threonine kinases that are widely distributed in eukaryotes. Two genes--prkg1 and prkg2--code for cGKs, namely cGKI and cGKII. In mammals, two isozymes, cGKIalpha and cGKIbeta, are generated from the prkg1 gene. The cGKI isozymes are prominent in all types of smooth muscle, platelets, and specific neuronal areas such as cerebellar Purkinje cells, ...
متن کاملTracking functions of cGMP-dependent protein kinases (cGK).
The options available for distinguishing the effects of cGMP mediated by cGK versus those mediated by other cGMP targets are discussed and evaluated. These include the unnecessary but often sole reliance on synthetic, small-molecule activators and inhibitors of cGK which are increasingly recognized as deficient in specificity. Other important adjunct options include cGK overexpression using ade...
