چکیده

Phosphorylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates many proteins and enzymes, including proteases, as shown by two recent publications. Huang and colleagues and Velázquez-Delgado and Hardy (this issue of Structure) describe how phosphorylation activates the protease activity of the deubiquitinating enzyme DUBA and how it inhibits caspase-6, respectively.

Cell Type-Specific Phosphorylation and Proteolysis of a Transcriptional Regulator Controls the G1-to-S Transition in a Bacterial Cell Cycle

The global transcriptional regulator CtrA controls multiple events in the Caulobacter cell cycle, including the initiation of DNA replication, DNA methylation, cell division, and flagellar biogenesis. CtrA is a member of the response regulator family of two component signal transduction systems and is activated by phosphorylation. We report here that this phosphorylation signal enters the cell ...

Effect of caspase cleavage-site phosphorylation on proteolysis.

Caspases are important mediators of apoptotic cell death. Several cellular protein substrates of caspases contain potential phosphorylation site(s) at the cleavage-site region, and some of these sites have been verified to be phosphorylated. Since phosphorylation may affect substantially the substrate susceptibility towards proteolysis, phosphorylated, non-phosphorylated and substituted oligope...

Functional Interplay between Caspase Cleavage and Phosphorylation Sculpts the Apoptotic Proteome

Caspase proteases are principal mediators of apoptosis, where they cleave hundreds of proteins. Phosphorylation also plays an important role in apoptosis, although the extent to which proteolytic and phosphorylation pathways crosstalk during programmed cell death remains poorly understood. Using a quantitative proteomic platform that integrates phosphorylation sites into the topographical maps ...

Proteolysis of the Hedgehog Signaling Effector Cubitus interruptus Requires Phosphorylation by Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 and Casein Kinase 1

The secreted signaling molecule Hedgehog regulates gene expression in target cells in part by preventing proteolysis of the full-length Cubitus interruptus (Ci-155) transcriptional activator to the Ci-75 repressor form. Ci-155 proteolysis depends on phosphorylation at three sites by Protein Kinase A (PKA). We show that these phosphoserines prime further phosphorylation at adjacent Glycogen Synt...

DNA damage inhibits proteolysis of the B-type cyclin Clb5 in S. cerevisiae.

Cell cycle progression is mediated by waves of specific cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) in all eukaryotes. Cyclins are degraded by the ubiquitin pathway of proteolysis. The recent identification of several components of the cyclin proteolysis machinery has highlighted both the importance of proteolysis at multiple transition points in the cell cycle and the involvement of other substrates degra...
