Protein Serine/Threonine Kinases. Serine/threonine
kinases (STKs), Ste20-like kinase (SLK)-like subfamily,
catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The SLK-like subfamily
is part of a larger superfamily that includes the
catalytic domains of other protein STKs, protein
tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. Members of the subfamily include SLK, STK10
(also called LOK for lymphocyte-oriented kinase), SmSLK
(Schistosoma mansoni SLK), and related proteins. SLK
promotes apoptosis through apoptosis signal-regulating
kinase 1 (ASK1) and the mitogen-activated protein kinase
(MAPK) p38. It also plays a role in mediating actin
reorganization. STK10 is responsible in regulating the
CD28 responsive element in T cells, as well as leukocyte
function associated antigen (LFA-1)-mediated lymphocyte
adhesion. SmSLK is capable of activating the MAPK Jun
N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in human embryonic
kidney (HEK) cells as well as in Xenopus oocytes. It may
participate in regulating MAPK cascades during
host-parasite interactions.

>gnl|CDD|173725 cd06608, STKc_myosinIII_like, Catalytic domain of Class III
myosin-like Protein Serine/Threonine Kinases.
Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), Class III myosin-like
subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
class III myosin-like subfamily is part of a larger
superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of other
protein STKs, protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases,
aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and
phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Class III myosins are motor
proteins with an N-terminal kinase catalytic domain and
a C-terminal actin-binding motor domain. Class III
myosins are present in the photoreceptors of
invertebrates and vertebrates and in the auditory hair
cells of mammals. The kinase domain of myosin III can
phosphorylate several cytoskeletal proteins,
conventional myosin regulatory light chains, and can
autophosphorylate the C-terminal motor domain. Myosin
III may play an important role in maintaining the
structural integrity of photoreceptor cell microvilli.
It may also function as a cargo carrier during
light-dependent translocation, in photoreceptor cells,
of proteins such as transducin and arrestin. The
Drosophila class III myosin, called NinaC (Neither
inactivation nor afterpotential protein C), is critical
in normal adaptation and termination of photoresponse.
Vertebrates contain two isoforms of class III myosin,
IIIA and IIIB. This subfamily also includes mammalian
NIK-like embryo-specific kinase (NESK), Traf2- and
Nck-interacting kinase (TNIK), mitogen-activated protein
kinase (MAPK) kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAPKKKK4 or
MAP4K4) and MAPKKKK6 (or MAP4K6). MAP4Ks are involved in
some MAPK signaling pathways by activating a MAPK kinase
kinase (MAPKKK or MAP3K or MKKK). Each MAPK cascade is
activated either by a small GTP-binding protein or by an
adaptor protein, which transmits the signal either
directly to a MAP3K to start the triple kinase core
cascade or indirectly through a mediator kinase, a
MAP4K. MAPK signaling cascades are important in
mediating cellular responses to extracellular signals.

Serine/Threonine Kinases. Serine/threonine kinases
(STKs), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase
kinase kinase 3 (MAPKKKK3 or MAP4K3)-like subfamily,
catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The MAP4K3-like
subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes
the catalytic domains of other protein STKs, protein
tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. This subfamily includes MAP4K3, MAP4K1,
MAP4K2, MAP4K5, and related proteins. Vertebrate members
contain an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal
citron homology (CNH) regulatory domain, similar to
MAP4K4/6. MAP4Ks are involved in some MAPK signaling
pathways that are important in mediating cellular
responses to extracellular signals by activating a MAPK
kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MAP3K or MKKK). Each MAPK
cascade is activated either by a small GTP-binding
protein or by an adaptor protein, which transmits the
signal either directly to a MAP3K to start the triple
kinase core cascade or indirectly through a mediator
kinase, a MAP4K. MAP4K1, also called haematopoietic
progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1), is a hematopoietic-specific
STK involved in many cellular signaling cascades
including MAPK, antigen receptor, apoptosis, growth
factor, and cytokine signaling. It participates in the
regulation of T cell receptor signaling and T
cell-mediated immune responses. MAP4K2 was referred to
as germinal center (GC) kinase because of its preferred
location in GC B cells. MAP4K3 plays a role in the
nutrient-responsive pathway of mTOR (mammalian target of
rapamycin) signaling. It is required in the activation
of S6 kinase by amino acids and for the phosphorylation
of the mTOR-regulated inhibitor of eukaryotic initiation
factor 4E. MAP4K5, also called germinal center
kinase-related enzyme (GCKR), has been shown to activate
the MAPK c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK).

Kinase, p21-activated kinase. Serine/threonine kinases
(STKs), p21-activated kinase (PAK) subfamily, catalytic
(c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The PAK subfamily is
part of a larger superfamily that includes the catalytic
domains of other protein STKs, protein tyrosine kinases,
RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline
kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. PAKs are Rho
family GTPase-regulated kinases that serve as important
mediators in the function of Cdc42 (cell division cycle
42) and Rac. PAKs are implicated in the regulation of
many cellular processes including growth factor
receptor-mediated proliferation, cell polarity, cell
motility, cell death and survival, and actin
cytoskeleton organization. PAK deregulation is
associated with tumor development. PAKs from higher
eukaryotes are classified into two groups (I and II),
according to their biochemical and structural features.
Group I PAKs contain a PBD (p21-binding domain)
overlapping with an AID (autoinhibitory domain), a
C-terminal catalytic domain, SH3 binding sites and a
non-classical SH3 binding site for PIX (PAK-interacting
exchange factor). Group II PAKs contain a PBD and a
catalytic domain, but lack other motifs found in group I
PAKs. Since group II PAKs do not contain an obvious AID,
they may be regulated differently from group I PAKs.
Group I PAKs interact with the SH3 containing proteins
Nck, Grb2 and PIX; no such binding has been demonstrated
for group II PAKs.

3-kinase. This subfamily is composed of MST3, MST4,
STK25, Schizosaccharomyces pombe Nak1 and Sid1,
Saccharomyces cerevisiae sporulation-specific protein 1
(SPS1), and related proteins. Nak1 is required by
fission yeast for polarizing the tips of actin
cytoskeleton and is involved in cell growth, cell
separation, cell morphology and cell-cycle progression.
Sid1 is a component in the septation initiation network
(SIN) signaling pathway, and plays a role in
cytokinesis. SPS1 plays a role in regulating proteins
required for spore wall formation. MST4 plays a role in
mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling during
cytoskeletal rearrangement, morphogenesis, and
apoptosis. MST3 phosphorylates the STK NDR and may play
a role in cell cycle progression and cell morphology.
STK25 may play a role in the regulation of cell
migration and polarization.

aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and
phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Members of this subfamily
contain an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal
citron homology (CNH) regulatory domain. MAP4Ks (or
MAPKKKKs) are involved in MAPK signaling pathways that
are important in mediating cellular responses to
extracellular signals by activating a MAPK kinase kinase
(MAPKKK or MAP3K or MKKK). Each MAPK cascade is
activated either by a small GTP-binding protein or by an
adaptor protein, which transmits the signal either
directly to a MAP3K to start the triple kinase core
cascade or indirectly through a mediator kinase, a
MAP4K. MAP4K4 is also called Nck Interacting kinase
(NIK). It facilitates the activation of the MAPKs,
extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1, ERK2, and
c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), by phosphorylating and
activating MEKK1. MAP4K4 plays a role in tumor necrosis
factor (TNF) alpha-induced insulin resistance. MAP4K4
silencing in skeletal muscle cells from type II diabetic
patients restores insulin-mediated glucose uptake.
MAP4K4, through JNK, also plays a broad role in cell
motility, which impacts inflammation, homeostasis, as
well as the invasion and spread of cancer. MAP4K4 is
found to be highly expressed in most tumor cell lines
relative to normal tissue. MAP4K6 (also called MINK for
Misshapen/NIKs-related kinase) is activated after Ras
induction and mediates activation of p38 MAPK. MAP4K6
plays a role in cell cycle arrest, cytoskeleton
organization, cell adhesion, and cell motility.

Protein Kinases (PKs), STE family, catalytic (c) domain.
PKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group
from ATP to serine/threonine or tyrosine residues on
protein substrates. The STE family is part of a larger
superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of other
protein serine/threonine kinases (STKs), protein
tyrosine kinases (PTKs), RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase (PI3K). This family is composed of STKs, and
some dual-specificity PKs that phosphorylate both
threonine and tyrosine residues of target proteins. Most
members are kinases involved in mitogen-activated
protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascades, acting as MAPK
kinases (MAPKKs), MAPK kinase kinases (MAPKKKs), or MAPK
kinase kinase kinases (MAP4Ks). The MAPK signaling
pathways are important mediators of cellular responses
to extracellular signals. The pathways involve a triple
kinase core cascade comprising of the MAPK, which is
phosphorylated and activated by a MAPKK, which itself is
phosphorylated and activated by a MAPKKK. Each MAPK
cascade is activated either by a small GTP-binding
protein or by an adaptor protein, which transmits the
signal either directly to a MAPKKK to start the triple
kinase core cascade or indirectly through a mediator
kinase, a MAP4K. Other STE family members include
p21-activated kinases (PAKs) and class III myosins,
among others. PAKs are Rho family GTPase-regulated
kinases that serve as important mediators in the
function of Cdc42 (cell division cycle 42) and Rac.
Class III myosins are motor proteins containing an

phosphorylates the STK NDR and may play a role in cell
cycle progression and cell morphology. It may also
regulate paxillin and consequently, cell migration. MST3
is present in human placenta, where it plays an
essential role in the oxidative stress-induced apoptosis
of trophoblasts in normal spontaneous delivery.
Dysregulation of trophoblast apoptosis may result in

The PAK subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that
includes the catalytic domains of other protein STKs,
protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. PAKs are Rho family GTPase-regulated kinases
that serve as important mediators in the function of
Cdc42 (cell division cycle 42) and Rac. PAKs are
implicated in the regulation of many cellular processes
including growth factor receptor-mediated proliferation,
cell polarity, cell motility, cell death and survival,
and actin cytoskeleton organization. PAKs from higher
eukaryotes are classified into two groups (I and II),
according to their biochemical and structural features.
Group I PAKs, also called conventional PAKs, include
PAK1, PAK2, and PAK3. Group I PAKs contain a PBD
(p21-binding domain) overlapping with an AID
(autoinhibitory domain), a C-terminal catalytic domain,
SH3 binding sites and a non-classical SH3 binding site
for PIX (PAK-interacting exchange factor). They interact
with the SH3 domain containing proteins Nck, Grb2 and
PIX. Binding of group I PAKs to activated GTPases leads
to conformational changes that destabilize the AID,
allowing autophosphorylation and full activation of the
kinase domain. Known group I PAK substrates include
MLCK, Bad, Raf, MEK1, LIMK, Merlin, Vimentin, Myc,
Stat5a, and Aurora A, among others.

phosphoinositide 3-kinase. This subfamily is composed of
MEKK3, MEKK2, and related proteins, all containing an
N-terminal PB1 domain, which mediates oligomerization,
and a C-terminal catalytic domain. MEKK2 and MEKK3 are
mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase kinases
(MAPKKKs or MKKKs or MAP3Ks), proteins that
phosphorylate and activate MAPK kinases (MAPKKs or MKKs
or MAP2Ks), which in turn phosphorylate and activate
MAPKs during signaling cascades that are important in
mediating cellular responses to extracellular signals.
MEKK2 and MEKK3 activate MEK5 (also called MKK5), which
activates extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5
(ERK5). The ERK5 cascade plays roles in promoting cell
proliferation, differentiation, neuronal survival, and
neuroprotection. MEKK3 plays an essential role in
embryonic angiogenesis and early heart development.
MEKK2 and MEKK3 can also activate the MAPKs, c-Jun
N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38, through their
respective MAPKKs.

signaling pathways that are important in mediating
cellular responses to extracellular signals by
activating a MAPK kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MAP3K or
MKKK). Each MAPK cascade is activated either by a small
GTP-binding protein or by an adaptor protein, which
transmits the signal either directly to a MAP3K to start
the triple kinase core cascade or indirectly through a
mediator kinase, a MAP4K. MAP4K5, also called germinal
center kinase-related enzyme (GCKR), has been shown to
activate the MAPK c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). MAP4K5
also facilitates Wnt signaling in B cells, and may
therefore be implicated in the control of cell fate,

actin-fragmin kinase. PKs make up a large family of
serine/threonine kinases, protein tyrosine kinases
(PTKs), and dual-specificity PKs that phosphorylate both
serine/threonine and tyrosine residues of target
proteins. Majority of protein phosphorylation, about
95%, occurs on serine residues while only 1% occurs on
tyrosine residues. Protein phosphorylation is a
mechanism by which a wide variety of cellular proteins,
such as enzymes and membrane channels, are reversibly
regulated in response to certain stimuli. PKs often
function as components of signal transduction pathways
in which one kinase activates a second kinase, which in
turn, may act on other kinases; this sequential action
transmits a signal from the cell surface to target
proteins, which results in cellular responses. The PK
family is one of the largest known protein families with
more than 100 homologous yeast enzymes and 550 human
proteins. A fraction of PK family members are
pseudokinases that lack crucial residues for catalytic
activity. The mutiplicity of kinases allows for specific
regulation according to substrate, tissue distribution,
and cellular localization. PKs regulate many cellular
processes including proliferation, division,
differentiation, motility, survival, metabolism,
cell-cycle progression, cytoskeletal rearrangement,
immunity, and neuronal functions. Many kinases are
implicated in the development of various human diseases
including different types of cancer.

(p21-binding domain) overlapping with an AID
(autoinhibitory domain), a C-terminal catalytic domain,
SH3 binding sites and a non-classical SH3 binding site
for PIX (PAK-interacting exchange factor). PAK1 is
important in the regulation of many cellular processes
including cytoskeletal dynamics, cell motility, growth,
and proliferation. Although PAK1 has been regarded
mainly as a cytosolic protein, recent reports indicate
that PAK1 also exists in significant amounts in the
nucleus, where it is involved in transcription
modulation and in cell cycle regulatory events. PAK1 is
also involved in transformation and tumorigenesis. Its
overexpression, hyperactivation and increased nuclear
accumulation is correlated to breast cancer invasiveness
and progression. Nuclear accumulation is also linked to
tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer cells.

that serve as important mediators in the function of
Cdc42 (cell division cycle 42) and Rac. PAKs from higher
eukaryotes are classified into two groups (I and II),
according to their biochemical and structural features.
PAK4 belongs to group II. Group II PAKs contain a PBD
(p21-binding domain) and a C-terminal catalytic domain,
but do not harbor an AID (autoinhibitory domain) or SH3
binding sites. PAK4 regulates cell morphology and
cytoskeletal organization. It is essential for embryonic
viability and proper neural development. Mice lacking
PAK4 die due to defects in the fetal heart. In addition,
their spinal cord motor neurons showed failure to
differentiate and migrate. PAK4 also plays a role in
cell survival and tumorigenesis. It is overexpressed in
many primary tumors including colon, esophageal, and
mammary tumors. PAK4 has also been implicated in viral
and bacterial infection pathways.

Receptor Kinase (GRK), Serum- and Glucocorticoid-induced
Kinase (SGK), and 70 kDa ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase
(p70S6K or S6K), among others. AGC kinases share an
activation mechanism based on the phosphorylation of up
to three sites: the activation loop (A-loop), the
hydrophobic motif (HM) and the turn motif.
Phosphorylation at the A-loop is required of most AGC
kinases, which results in a disorder-to-order transition
of the A-loop. The ordered conformation results in the
access of substrates and ATP to the active site. A
subset of AGC kinases with C-terminal extensions
containing the HM also requires phosphorylation at this
site. Phosphorylation at the HM allows the C-terminal
extension to form an ordered structure that packs into
the hydrophobic pocket of the catalytic domain, which
then reconfigures the kinase into an active bi-lobed
state. In addition, growth factor-activated AGC kinases
such as PKB, p70S6K, RSK, MSK, PKC, and SGK, require
phosphorylation at the turn motif (also called tail or
zipper site), located N-terminal to the HM at the
C-terminal extension. AGC kinases regulate many cellular
processes including division, growth, survival,
metabolism, motility, and differentiation. Many are
implicated in the development of various human diseases.

phosphatidylserine (PS) for activation. Novel PKCs are
calcium-independent, but require DAG and PS for
activity, while atypical PKCs only require PS. PKCs
phosphorylate and modify the activities of a wide
variety of cellular proteins including receptors,
enzymes, cytoskeletal proteins, transcription factors,
and other kinases. They play a central role in signal
transduction pathways that regulate cell migration and
polarity, proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis.
Also included in this subfamily are the PKC-like

cellular responses to extracellular signals. Budding
yeast Bck1 is part of the cell integrity MAPK pathway,
which is activated by stresses and aggressions to the
cell wall. The MAPKKK Bck1, MAPKKs Mkk1 and Mkk2, and
the MAPK Slt2 make up the cascade that is important in
the maintenance of cell wall homeostasis. Fission yeast
Mkh1 is involved in MAPK cascades regulating cell
morphology, cell wall integrity, salt resistance, and

Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Novel Protein Kinase C
(nPKC), theta isoform, catalytic (c) domain. STKs
catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from
ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein substrates.
The nPKC subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that
includes the catalytic domains of other protein STKs,
protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. PKCs are classified into three groups
(classical, atypical, and novel) depending on their mode
of activation and the structural characteristics of
their regulatory domain. nPKCs are calcium-independent,
but require DAG (1,2-diacylglycerol) and
phosphatidylserine (PS) for activity. There are four
nPKC isoforms, delta, epsilon, eta, and theta. PKC-theta
is selectively expressed in T-cells and plays an
important and non-redundant role in several aspects of
T-cell biology. Although T-cells also express other PKC
isoforms, PKC-theta is unique in that upon antigen
stimulation, it is translocated to the plasma membrane
at the immunological synapse, where it mediates signals
essential for T-cell activation. It is essential for
TCR-induced proliferation, cytokine production, T-cell
survival, and the differentiation and effector function
of T-helper (Th) cells, particularly Th2 and Th17.
PKC-theta is being developed as a therapeutic target for
Th2-mediated allergic inflammation and Th17-mediated
autoimmune diseases.

inactive PKA holoenzyme is a heterotetramer composed of
two phosphorylated and active catalytic (C) subunits
with a dimer of regulatory (R) subunits. Activation is
achieved through the binding of the important second
messenger cAMP to the R subunits, which leads to the
dissociation of PKA into the R dimer and two active C
subunits. PKA is present ubiquitously in cells and
interacts with many different downstream targets. It
plays a role in the regulation of diverse processes such
as growth, development, memory, metabolism, gene
expression, immunity, and lipolysis.

This PTKc family is part of a larger superfamily that
includes the catalytic domains of protein
serine/threonine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase (PI3K). PTKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to tyrosine (tyr)
residues in protein substrates. They can be classified
into receptor and non-receptor tyr kinases. PTKs play
important roles in many cellular processes including,
lymphocyte activation, epithelium growth and
maintenance, metabolism control, organogenesis
regulation, survival, proliferation, differentiation,
migration, adhesion, motility, and morphogenesis.
Receptor tyr kinases (RTKs) are integral membrane
proteins which contain an extracellular ligand-binding
region, a transmembrane segment, and an intracellular
tyr kinase domain. RTKs are usually activated through
ligand binding, which causes dimerization and
autophosphorylation of the intracellular tyr kinase
catalytic domain, leading to intracellular signaling.
Some RTKs are orphan receptors with no known ligands.
Non-receptor (or cytoplasmic) tyr kinases are
distributed in different intracellular compartments and
are usually multi-domain proteins containing a catalytic
tyr kinase domain as well as various regulatory domains
such as SH3 and SH2. PTKs are usually autoinhibited and
require a mechanism for activation. In many PTKs, the
phosphorylation of tyr residues in the activation loop
is essential for optimal activity. Aberrant expression
of PTKs is associated with many development
abnormalities and cancers.

with cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell motility.
It plays a role in the signaling of the growth factors
PDGF, VEGF, EGF, and FGF. Abnormal levels of PKC-alpha
have been detected in many transformed cell lines and
several human tumors. In addition, PKC-alpha is required
for HER2 dependent breast cancer invasion.

phosphorylates and activates the downstream targets,
c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK, on specific
threonine and tyrosine residues. JNK and p38 are
collectively known as stress-activated MAPKs, as they
are activated in response to a variety of environmental
stresses and pro-inflammatory cytokines. Their
activation is associated with the induction of cell
death. Mice deficient in MKK4 die during embryogenesis
and display anemia, severe liver hemorrhage, and
abnormal hepatogenesis. MKK4 may also play roles in the
immune system and in cardiac hypertrophy. It plays a

autophosphorylation, stimulating downstream kinase
activities, which initiate signaling cascades and
biological function. InsR and IGF-1R, which share 84%
sequence identity in their kinase domains, display
physiologically distinct yet overlapping functions in
cell growth, differentiation, and metabolism. InsR
activation leads primarily to metabolic effects while
IGF-1R activation stimulates mitogenic pathways. In

protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest
superfamily of cell surface receptors which regulate
some part of nearly all physiological functions.
Phosphorylated GPCRs bind to arrestins, which prevents
further G protein signaling despite the presence of
activating ligand. There are seven types of GRKs, named
GRK1 to GRK7. GRK4 has a limited tissue distribution. It
is mainly found in the testis, but is also present in
the cerebellum and kidney. It is expressed as multiple
splice variants with different domain architectures. It
is post-translationally palmitoylated and localized in
the membrane. GRK4 polymorphisms are associated with
hypertension and salt sensitivity, as they cause
hyperphosphorylation, desensitization, and
internalization of the dopamine 1 (D1) receptor while
increasing the expression of the angiotensin II type 1
receptor. GRK4 plays a crucial role in the D1 receptor
regulation of sodium excretion and blood pressure.

PKC-iota is directly implicated in carcinogenesis. It is
critical to oncogenic signaling mediated by Ras and
Bcr-Abl. The PKC-iota gene is the target of
tumor-specific gene amplification in many human cancers,
and has been identified as a human oncogene. In addition
to its role in transformed growth, PKC-iota also
promotes invasion, chemoresistance, and tumor cell
survival. Expression profiling of PKC-iota is a
prognostic marker of poor clinical outcome in several
human cancers. PKC-iota also plays a role in
establishing cell polarity, and has critical embryonic

Initially it was thought that JNK1 and JNK2 were
functionally redundant as mice deficient in either genes
(Jnk1 or Jnk2) could survive but disruption of both
genes resulted in lethality. However, recent studies
have shown that JNK1 and JNK2 perform distinct functions
through specific binding partners and substrates. JNK2
is specifically translocated to the mitochondria during
dopaminergic cell death. Specific substrates include the
microtubule-associated proteins DCX and Tau, as well as
TIF-IA which is involved in ribosomal RNA synthesis
regulation. Mice deficient in Jnk2 show protection
against arthritis, type 1 diabetes, atherosclerosis,

Kinase, Platelet Derived Growth Factor Receptor alpha.
Protein Tyrosine Kinase (PTK) family; Platelet Derived
Growth Factor Receptor (PDGFR) alpha; catalytic (c)
domain. The PTKc family is part of a larger superfamily
that includes the catalytic domains of other kinases
such as protein serine/threonine kinases, RIO kinases,
and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). PTKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
tyrosine (tyr) residues in protein substrates. PDGFR
alpha is a receptor tyr kinase (RTK) containing an
extracellular ligand-binding region with five
immunoglobulin-like domains, a transmembrane segment,
and an intracellular catalytic domain. The binding to
its ligands, the PDGFs, leads to receptor dimerization,
trans phosphorylation and activation, and intracellular
signaling. PDGFR alpha forms homodimers or heterodimers
with PDGFR beta, depending on the nature of the PDGF
ligand. PDGF-AA, PDGF-AB, and PDGF-CC induce PDGFR alpha
homodimerization. PDGFR signaling plays many roles in
normal embryonic development and adult physiology. PDGFR
alpha signaling is important in the formation of lung
alveoli, intestinal villi, mesenchymal dermis, and hair
follicles, as well as in the development of
oligodendrocytes, retinal astrocytes, neural crest
cells, and testicular cells. Aberrant PDGFR alpha
expression is associated with some human cancers.
Mutations in PDGFR alpha have been found within a subset
of gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs). An active
fusion protein FIP1L1-PDGFR alpha, derived from
interstitial deletion, is associated with idiopathic
hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and chronic
eosinophilic leukemia (CEL).

a triple kinase core cascade comprising the MAP kinase
(MAPK), which is phosphorylated and activated by a MAPK
kinase (MAPKK or MKK), which itself is phosphorylated

MEK2 is a dual-specificity PK that phosphorylates and
activates the downstream targets, extracellular
signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and ERK2, on specific
threonine and tyrosine residues. The ERK cascade starts
with extracellular signals including growth factors,
hormones, and neurotransmitters, which act through
receptors and ion channels to initiate intracellular
signaling that leads to the activation at the MAPKKK
(Raf-1 or MOS) level, which leads to the transmission of
signals to MEK2, and finally to ERK1/2. The ERK cascade
plays an important role in cell proliferation,
differentiation, oncogenic transformation, and cell
cycle control, as well as in apoptosis and cell survival
under certain conditions. Gain-of-function mutations in
genes encoding ERK cascade proteins, including MEK2,
cause cardiofaciocutaneous (CFC) syndrome, a condition
leading to multiple congenital anomalies and mental

Microcin C7 self-immunity protein (mccF): MccF, a
homolog of the LD-carboxypeptidase family, mediates
resistance against exogenously added microcin C7
(MccC7), a ribosomally-encoded peptide antibiotic that
contains a phosphoramidate linkage to adenosine
monophosphate at its C-terminus. The plasmid-encoded
mccF gene is transcribed in the opposite direction to
the other five genes (mccA-E) and is required for the
full expression of immunity but not for production. The
catalytic triad residues (Ser, His, Glu) of
LD-carboxypeptidase are also conserved in MccF, strongly
suggesting that MccF shares the hydrolytic activity with
LD-carboxypeptidases. Substrates of MccF have not been
deduced, but could likely be microcin C7 precursors. The
possible role of MccF is to defend producer cells
against exogenous microcin from re-entering after having
been exported. It is suggested that MccF is involved in
microcin degradation or sequestration in the periplasm.

different JNK genes (Jnk1, Jnk2, and Jnk3). JNK1, like
JNK2, is expressed in every cell and tissue type.
Initially it was thought that JNK1 and JNK2 were
functionally redundant as mice deficient in either genes
(Jnk1 or Jnk2) could survive but disruption of both
genes resulted in lethality. However, recent studies
have shown that JNK1 and JNK2 perform distinct functions
through specific binding partners and substrates. JNK1
specifically binds with JAMP (JNK1-associated membrane
protein), which regulates the duration of JNK1 activity
in response to stimuli. Specific JNK1 substrates include
Itch and SG10, which are implicated in Th2 responses and
airway inflammation, and microtubule dynamics and
axodendritic length, respectively. Mice deficient in
Jnk1 are protected against arthritis, obesity, type 2
diabetes, cardiac cell death, and non-alcoholic liver
disease, suggesting that JNK1 may play roles in the
pathogenesis of these diseases.

of the MAPK, which is phosphorylated and activated by a
MAPK kinase (MAP2K or MKK), which itself is

Serine/Threonine Kinase, G protein-coupled Receptor
Kinase 6. Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), G
protein-coupled Receptor Kinase (GRK) subfamily, GRK6
isoform, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The GRK
subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes
the catalytic domains of other protein STKs, protein
tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. GRKs phosphorylate and regulate G
protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the largest
superfamily of cell surface receptors which regulate
some part of nearly all physiological functions.
Phosphorylated GPCRs bind to arrestins, which prevents
further G protein signaling despite the presence of
activating ligand. There are seven types of GRKs, named
GRK1 to GRK7. GRK6 is widely expressed in many tissues.
t is expressed as multiple splice variants with
different domain architectures. It is
post-translationally palmitoylated and localized in the
membrane. GRK6 plays important roles in the regulation
of dopamine, M3 muscarinic, opioid, and chemokine
receptor signaling. It also plays maladaptive roles in
addiction and Parkinson's disease. GRK6-deficient mice
exhibit altered dopamine receptor regulation, decreased
lymphocyte chemotaxis, and increased acute inflammation
and neutrophil chemotaxis.

subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the

(RAGE-1), is widely expressed and is enriched in testis,
kidney, lung, and brain. It is expressed in
approximately 50% of renal cell carcinomas (RCC) and is
a potential target for immunotherapy. MOK is stabilized
by its association with the HSP90 molecular chaperone.
It is induced by the transcription factor Cdx2 and may
be involved in regulating intestinal epithelial
development and differentiation.

>gnl|CDD|213364 cd12830, MtCorA-like, Mycobacterium tuberculosis CorA-like
subfamily. This bacterial subfamily belongs to the
Thermotoga maritima CorA (TmCorA)-like family of the MIT
superfamily of essential membrane proteins involved in
transporting divalent cations (uptake or efflux) across
membranes. This subfamily includes the Mg2+ transporter
Mycobacterium tuberculosis CorA (which also transports
Co2+). Thermotoga maritima CorA forms funnel-shaped
homopentamers, the tip of the funnel is formed from two
C-terminal transmembrane (TM) helices from each monomer,
and the large opening of the funnel from the N-terminal
cytoplasmic domains. The GMN signature motif of the MIT
superfamily occurs just after TM1, mutation within this
motif is known to abolish Mg2+ transport by a related
protein, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Alr1p. Natural
variants in this signature sequence may be associated
with the transport of different divalent cations. The
functional diversity of the MIT superfamily may also be
due to minor structural differences regulating gating,
substrate selection, and transport.
