Kinase Regulation: Competing Phosphatases in JAK Dephosphorylation
نویسنده
چکیده
The Janus kinases (JAKs) are essential for cytokine receptor signalling and their dephosphorylation represents a potent inhibitory mechanism. A new paper highlights the T-cell tyrosine phosphatase as an important JAK inhibitor.

Protein tyrosine phosphatases in the JAK/STAT pathway.
The Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway is crucial in controlling cellular activities in response to extracellular cytokines. Dysfunctions of the JAK/STAT pathway result in various hematopoietic and immune disorders. The central events in regulating this pathway are tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of the signaling components, which a...
متن کاملProtein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type γ is a JAK phosphatase and negatively regulates leukocyte integrin activation.
Regulation of signal transduction networks depends on protein kinase and phosphatase activities. Protein tyrosine kinases of the JAK family have been shown to regulate integrin affinity modulation by chemokines and mediated homing to secondary lymphoid organs of human T lymphocytes. However, the role of protein tyrosine phosphatases in leukocyte recruitment is still elusive. In this study, we a...

متن کاملCdk1 orders mitotic events through coordination of a chromosome-associated phosphatase switch
RepoMan is a scaffold for signalling by mitotic phosphatases at the chromosomes. During (pro)metaphase, RepoMan-associated protein phosphatases PP1 and PP2A-B56 regulate the chromosome targeting of Aurora-B kinase and RepoMan, respectively. Here we show that this task division is critically dependent on the phosphorylation of RepoMan by protein kinase Cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1), which red...
متن کاملRegulation of casein kinase 2 by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.
The effects of various polycation-stimulated (PCS) phosphatases and of the active catalytic subunit of the ATPMg-dependent (AMDc) protein phosphatase on the activity of casein kinase 2 (CK-2) were investigated by using the synthetic peptide substrate Ser-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu-Glu, whose phosphorylated derivative is entirely insensitive to these protein phosphatases. Previous dephosphorylation of nati...
