The mechanism of protein kinase regulation by protein phosphatases.

چکیده

Protein kinases are an important class of substrate of the protein phosphatases. We have examined the mechanism of dephosphorylation of the activation segments of the insulin receptor kinase and cyclin-dependent kinase 2 by their respective phosphatases, namely the tyrosine specific phosphatase PTP1B and the dual specificity phosphatase KAP. These studies reveal that PTP1B and KAP utilize contrasting mechanisms in order to dephosphorylate their substrates specifically.

Inactivation of mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway reduces caspase-14 expression in impaired keratinocytes

Objective(s):Several investigations have revealed that caspase-14 is responsible for the epidermal differentiation and cornification, as well as the regulation of moisturizing effect. However, the precise regulation mechanism is still not clear. This study was aimed to investigate the expression of caspase-14 in filaggrin-deficient normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) and to explore the...

Role of adenosine receptors and protein phosphatases in the reversal of pentylenetetrazol-induced potentiation phenomenon by theta pulse stimulation in the CA1 region of rat hippocampal slices

The effect of theta pulse stimulation (TPS) on pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced long-term potentiation of population spikes (PS) was studied in the hippocampal CA1 in vitro. A transient PTZ application produced a long-lasting enhancement of PS amplitude. A 3-min episode of TPS delivered at a higher intensity produced complete reversal of the PTZ potentiation when delivered during the last minute...
