Phosphoinositide-dependent kinase 1 (PDK1) subfamily,
catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The PDK1 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 (PI3K). PDK1
carries an N-terminal catalytic domain and a C-terminal
pleckstrin homology (PH) domain that binds
phosphoinositides. It phosphorylates the activation loop
of AGC kinases that are regulated by PI3K such as PKB,
SGK, and PKC, among others, and is crucial for their
activation. Thus, it contributes in regulating many
processes including metabolism, growth, proliferation,
and survival. PDK1 also has the ability to
autophosphorylate and is constitutively active in
mammalian cells. PDK1 is essential for normal embryo
development and is important in regulating cell volume.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe Sid2p and Saccharomyces
cerevisiae Dbf2p. Group members show similarity to NDR
kinases in that they contain an N-terminal regulatory
(NTR) domain and an insert within the catalytic domain
that contains an auto-inhibitory sequence. Sid2p plays a
crucial role in the septum initiation network (SIN) and
in the initiation of cytokinesis. Dbf2p is important in
regulating the mitotic exit network (MEN) and in
cytokinesis.

(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.

and Hog1. Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Fungal
Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) Sty1/Hog1
subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
Sty1/Hog1 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 is composed of the MAPKs Sty1
from Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Hog1 from Saccharomyces
cerevisiae, and similar proteins. MAPKs are important
mediators of cellular responses to extracellular
signals. Sty1 and Hog1 are stress-activated MAPKs that
partipate in transcriptional regulation in response to
stress. Sty1 is activated in response to oxidative
stress, osmotic stress, and UV radiation. Sty1 is
regulated by the MAP2K Wis1, which is activated by the
MAP3Ks Wis4 and Win1, which receive signals of the
stress condition from membrane-spanning histidine
kinases Mak1-3. Activated Sty1 stabilizes the Atf1
transcription factor and induces transcription of
Atf1-dependent genes of the core environmetal stress
response (CESR). Hog1 is the key element in the high
osmolarity glycerol (HOG) pathway and is activated upon
hyperosmotic stress. Activated Hog1 accumulates in the
nucleus and regulates stress-induced transcription. The
HOG pathway is mediated by two transmembrane
osmosensors, Sln1 and Sho1.

Schizosaccharomyces pombe Nak1, Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Kic1p (kinase that interacts with Cdc31p) and related
proteins. Nak1 (also known as N-rich kinase 1), 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.
Kic1p is required by budding yeast for cell integrity
and morphogenesis. Kic1p interacts with Cdc31p, the
yeast homologue of centrin, and phosphorylates
substrates in a Cdc31p-dependent manner.

Kinase, G protein-coupled Receptor Kinase.
Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), G protein-coupled
Receptor Kinase (GRK) subfamily, 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. GRKs contain a central
catalytic domain, flanked by N- and C-terminal
extensions. The N-terminus contains an RGS (regulator of
G protein signaling) homology (RH) domain and several
motifs. The C-terminus diverges among different groups
of GRKs. There are seven types of GRKs, named GRK1 to
GRK7. They are subdivided into three main groups: visual
(GRK1/7); beta-adrenergic receptor kinases (GRK2/3); and
GRK4-like (GRK4/5/6). Expression of GRK2/3/5/6 is
widespread while GRK1/4/7 show a limited tissue
distribution. The substrate spectrum of the widely
expressed GRKs partially overlaps. GRKs play important
roles in the cardiovascular, immune, respiratory,
skeletal, and nervous systems.

Kinases (STKs), Cell Division Cycle 2-like 1 (CDC2L1)
subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
CDC2L1 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. CDKs belong to a large family of STKs that are
regulated by their cognate cyclins. Together, they are
involved in the control of cell-cycle progression,
transcription, and neuronal function. CDC2L1, also
called PITSLRE, exists in different isoforms which are
named using the alias CDK11(p). The CDC2L1 gene produces
two protein products, CDK11(p110) and CDK11(p58). CDC2L1
is also represented by the caspase-processed CDK11(p46).
CDK11(p110), the major isoform, associates with cyclin L
and is expressed throughout the cell cycle. It is
involved in RNA processing and the regulation of
transcription. CDK11(p58) associates with cyclin D3 and
is expressed during the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. It
plays roles in spindle morphogenesis, centrosome
maturation, sister chromatid cohesion, and the
completion of mitosis. CDK11(p46) is formed from the
larger isoforms by caspases during TNFalpha- and
Fas-induced apoptosis. It functions as a downstream
effector kinase in apoptotic signaling pathways and
interacts with eukaryotic initiation factor 3f (eIF3f),
p21-activated kinase (PAK1), and Ran-binding protein
(RanBPM).

Kinases (STKs), c-Jun N-terminal kinase 2 (JNK2)
subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
JNK2 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. JNKs are mitogen-activated protein kinases
(MAPKs) that are involved in many stress-activated
responses including those during inflammation,
neurodegeneration, apoptosis, and persistent pain
sensitization, among others. Vetebrates harbor three
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. 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,
abdominal aortic aneurysm, cardiac cell death,
TNF-induced liver damage, and tumor growth, indicating
that JNK2 may play roles in the pathogenesis of these
diseases.

an important role in learning and memory. Inactivation
of CDKL3, also called NKIAMRE (NKIATRE in rat), by
translocation is associated with mild mental
retardation. It has been reported that CDKL3 is lost in
leukemic cells having a chromosome arm 5q deletion, and
may contribute to the transformed phenotype.

protein Kinase-like Serine/Threonine Kinases.
Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Cyclin-Dependent
protein Kinase (CDK)-like subfamily, catalytic (c)
domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The CDK-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. CDKs belong to a large family of STKs that are
regulated by their cognate cyclins. Together, they are
involved in the control of cell-cycle progression,
transcription, and neuronal function. CDKs are partly
regulated by their subcellular localization, which
defines substrate phosphorylation and the resulting
specific function. CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK6 have
well-defined functions in the cell cycle, such as the
regulation of the early G1 phase by CDK4 or CDK6, the
G1/S phase transition by CDK2, or the entry of mitosis
by CDK1. They also exhibit overlapping cyclin
specificity and functions in certain conditions.
Knockout mice with a single CDK deleted remain viable
with specific phenotypes, showing that some CDKs can
compensate for each other. For example, CDK4 can
compensate for the loss of CDK6, however, double
knockout mice with both CDK4 and CDK6 deleted die in
utero. CDK8 and CDK9 are mainly involved in
transcription while CDK5 is implicated in neuronal
function. CDK7 plays essential roles in both the cell
cycle as a CDK-Activating Kinase (CAK) and in
transcription as a component of the general
transcription factor TFIIH.

Serine/Threonine Kinases. Serine/Threonine Kinases
(STKs), AGC (Protein Kinases A, G and C) family,
catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The AGC family 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 (PI3K). Members of
this family include cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase (PKA),
cGMP-dependent Protein Kinase (PKG), Protein Kinase C
(PKC), Protein Kinase B (PKB), G protein-coupled
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.

ERK1/2-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 is composed of
the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) ERK1,
ERK2, baker's yeast Fus3, and similar proteins. MAPK
pathways are important mediators of cellular responses
to extracellular signals. ERK1/2 activation is
preferentially by mitogenic factors, differentiation
stimuli, and cytokines, through a kinase cascade
involving the MAPK kinases MEK1/2 and a MAPK kinase
kinase from the Raf family. ERK1/2 have numerous
substrates, many of which are nuclear and participate in
transcriptional regulation of many cellular processes.
They regulate cell growth, cell proliferation, and cell
cycle progression from G1 to S phase. Although the
distinct roles of ERK1 and ERK2 have not been fully
determined, it is known that ERK2 can maintain most
functions in the absence of ERK1, and that the deletion
of ERK2 is embryonically lethal. The MAPK, Fus3,
regulates yeast mating processes including
mating-specific gene expression, G1 arrest, mating
projection, and cell fusion.

RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline
kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Pho85 is a
multifunctional Cyclin-Dependent protein Kinase (CDK) in
yeast. CDKs belong to a large family of STKs that are
regulated by their cognate cyclins. Together, they are
involved in the control of cell-cycle progression,
transcription, and neuronal function. Pho85 is regulated
by 10 different cyclins (Pcls) and plays a role in G1
progression, cell polarity, phosphate and glycogen
metabolism, gene expression, and in signaling changes in
the environment. It is not essential for yeast viability
and is the functional homolog of mammalian CDK5, which
plays a role in central nervous system development.

JNK1 subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that
includes the catalytic domains of other protein STKs,
protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside

3-kinase. JNKs are mitogen-activated protein kinases
(MAPKs) that are involved in many stress-activated
responses including those during inflammation,
neurodegeneration, apoptosis, and persistent pain
sensitization, among others. Vetebrates harbor three
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.

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
N-terminal kinase catalytic domain and a C-terminal
actin-binding domain, which can phosphorylate several
cytoskeletal proteins, conventional myosin regulatory
light chains, as well as autophosphorylate the
C-terminal motor domain. They play an important role in
maintaining the structural integrity of photoreceptor
cell microvilli.

including TAK1, ASK1, and MLK3, in response to cellular
stresses or inflammatory cytokines. Vertebrates contain
four isoforms of p38, named alpha, beta, gamma, and
delta. p38alpha, also called MAPK14, is expressed in
most tissues and is the major isoform involved in the
immune and inflammatory response. It is the central p38
MAPK involved in myogenesis. It plays a role in
regulating cell cycle check-point transition and
promoting cell differentiation. p38alpha also regulates
cell proliferation and death through crosstalk with the
JNK pathway. Its substrates include MAPK activated
protein kinase 2 (MK2), MK5, and the transcription
factors ATF2 and Mitf.

substrates. The cGK 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. Mammals have two cGK isoforms
from different genes, cGKI and cGKII. cGKI exists as two
splice variants, cGKI-alpha and cGKI-beta. cGK consists
of an N-terminal regulatory domain containing a
dimerization and an autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate
region, two cGMP-binding domains, and a C-terminal
catalytic domain. Binding of cGMP to both binding sites
releases the inhibition of the catalytic center by the
pseudosubstrate region, allowing autophosphorylation and
activation of the kinase. cGKI is a soluble protein
expressed in all smooth muscles, platelets, cerebellum,
and kidney. It is also expressed at lower concentrations
in other tissues. cGKII is a membrane-bound protein that
is most abundantly expressed in the intestine. It is
also present in the brain nuclei, adrenal cortex,
kidney, lung, and prostate. cGKI is involved in the
regulation of smooth muscle tone, smooth cell
proliferation, and platelet activation. cGKII plays a
role in the regulation of secretion, such as renin
secretion by the kidney and aldosterone secretion by the
adrenal. It also regulates bone growth and the circadian
rhythm.

kinases (MAPKs), serving as important mediators of
cellular responses to extracellular signals. They are
activated by the MAPK kinases MKK3 and MKK6, which in
turn are activated by upstream MAPK kinase kinases
including TAK1, ASK1, and MLK3, in response to cellular
stresses or inflammatory cytokines. Vertebrates contain
four isoforms of p38, named alpha, beta, gamma, and
delta. p38gamma, also called MAPK12, is predominantly
expressed in skeletal muscle. Unlike p38alpha and
p38beta, p38gamma is insensitive to pyridinylimidazoles.
It displays an antagonizing function compared to
p38alpha. p38gamma inhibits, while p38alpha stimulates,
c-Jun phosphorylation and AP-1 mediated transcription.
p38gamma also plays a role in the signaling between Ras
and the estrogen receptor and has been implicated to
increase cell invasion and breast cancer progression. In
Xenopus, p38gamma is critical in the meiotic maturation
of oocytes.

Nercc1, is primarily a cytoplasmic protein but can also
localize in the nucleus. It is involved in modulating
chromosome alignment and splitting during mitosis. It
interacts with the gamma-tubulin ring complex and the
Ran GTPase, and is implicated in microtubule
organization. Nek9 associates with FACT (FAcilitates
Chromatin Transcription) and modulates interphase
progression. It also interacts with Nek6, and Nek7,
during mitosis, resulting in their activation.

(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.

of the MAP kinase (MAPK), which is phosphorylated and

is phosphorylated and activated by a MAPK kinase kinase
(MAPKKK or MKKK). Members of this group include MAPKKs
from plants, kinetoplastids, alveolates, and mycetozoa.
The MAPKK, LmxPK4, from Leishmania mexicana, is
important in differentiation and virulence.
Dictyostelium discoideum MEK1 is required for proper
chemotaxis. MEK1 null mutants display severe defects in
cell polarization and directional movement. Plants
contain multiple MAPKKs like other eukaryotes. The
Arabidopsis genome encodes for 10 MAPKKs while poplar
and rice contain 13 MAPKKs each. The functions of these
proteins have not been fully elucidated. There is
evidence to suggest that MAPK cascades are involved in
plant stress responses. In Arabidopsis, MKK3 plays a
role in pathogen signaling, MKK2 is involved in cold and
salt stress signaling, MKK4/MKK5 participates in innate
immunity, and MKK7 regulates basal and systemic acquired

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.

subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes
the catalytic domains of other protein STKs, protein

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.

part of a larger superfamily that includes the catalytic
domains of other protein STKs, protein tyrosine kinases,
RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline

important mediators of cellular responses to
extracellular signals. ERK5, also called Big MAPK1
(BMK1) or MAPK7, has a unique C-terminal extension,
making it approximately twice as big as other MAPKs.
This extension contains transcriptional activation
capability which is inhibited by the N-terminal half.
ERK5 is activated in response to growth factors and
stress by a cascade that leads to its phosphorylation by
the MAP2K MEK5, which in turn is regulated by the MAP3Ks
MEKK2 and MEKK3. Activated ERK5 phosphorylates its
targets including myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2),
Sap1a, c-Myc, and RSK. It plays a role in EGF-induced
cell proliferation during the G1/S phase transition.
Studies on knockout mice revealed that ERK5 is essential
for cardiovascular development and plays an important
role in angiogenesis. It is also critical for neural
differentiation and survival. The ERK5 pathway has been
implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases
including cancer, cardiac hypertrophy, and
atherosclerosis.

Ron are receptor tyr kinases (RTKs) composed of an
alpha-beta heterodimer. The extracellular alpha chain is
disulfide linked to the beta chain, which contains an
extracellular ligand-binding region with a sema domain,
a PSI domain and four IPT repeats, a transmembrane
segment, and an intracellular catalytic domain. Binding
to their ligands leads to receptor dimerization,
autophosphorylation, activation, and intracellular
signaling. Met binds to the ligand, hepatocyte growth
factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), and is also called the
HGF receptor. HGF/Met signaling plays a role in growth,
transformation, cell motility, invasion, metastasis,
angiogenesis, wound healing, and tissue regeneration.
Aberrant expression of Met through mutations or gene
amplification is associated with many human cancers
including hereditary papillary renal and gastric
carcinomas. The ligand for Ron is macrophage stimulating
protein (MSP). Ron signaling is important in regulating
cell motility, adhesion, proliferation, and apoptosis.
Aberrant Ron expression is implicated in tumorigenesis
and metastasis.

Arabidopsis thaliana MHK, and similar proteins. These
proteins play important roles during meiosis. MAK is
highly expressed in testicular cells specifically in the
meiotic phase, but is not essential for spermatogenesis
and fertility. It functions as a coactivator of the
androgen receptor in prostate cells. MRK, also called
Intestinal Cell Kinase (ICK), is expressed ubiquitously,
with highest expression in the ovary and uterus. A
missense mutation in MRK causes
endocrine-cerebro-osteodysplasia (ECO), suggesting that
this protein plays an important role in the development
of many organs. MAK and MRK may be involved in
regulating cell cycle and cell fate. Ime2p is a
meiosis-specific kinase that is important during meiotic
initiation and during the later stages of meiosis. Mde3
functions downstream of the transcription factor Mei-4
which is essential for meiotic prophase I.

retinoblastoma (pRb) protein which activates E2F
mediated transcription and allows cells to move into S
phase. The CDK2/cyclin A complex plays a role in
regulating DNA replication. CDK2, together with CDK4,
also regulates embryonic cell proliferation. Despite
these important roles, mice deleted for the cdk2 gene
are viable and normal except for being sterile. This may
be due to compensation provided by CDK1 (also called
Cdc2), which can also bind cyclin E and drive the G1 to

which are receptor tyr kinases (RTKs) containing an
extracellular EGF-related ligand-binding region, a
transmembrane helix, and a cytoplasmic region with a tyr
kinase domain and a regulatory C-terminal tail. Unlike
other tyr kinases, phosphorylation of the activation
loop of EGFR proteins is not critical to their
activation. Instead, they are activated by
ligand-induced dimerization, leading to the
phosphorylation of tyr residues in the C-terminal tail,
which serve as binding sites for downstream signaling
molecules. HER2 does not bind to any known EGFR
subfamily ligands, but contributes to the kinase
activity of all possible heterodimers. It acts as the
preferred partner with other ligand-bound EGFR proteins
and functions as a signal amplifier, with the HER2-HER3
heterodimer being the most potent pair in mitogenic
signaling. HER2 plays an important role in cell
development, proliferation, survival and motility.
Overexpression of HER2 results in its activation and
downstream signaling, even in the absence of ligand.
HER2 overexpression, mainly due to gene amplification,
has been shown in a variety of human cancers. Its role
in breast cancer is especially well-documented. HER2 is
up-regulated in about 25% of breast tumors and is
associated with increases in tumor aggressiveness,
recurrence and mortality. HER2 is a target for
monoclonal antibodies and small molecule inhibitors,
which are being developed as treatments for cancer. The
first humanized antibody approved for clinical use is
Trastuzumab (Herceptin), which is being used in
combination with other therapies to improve the survival
rates of patients with HER2-overexpressing breast
cancer.

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. The beta-ARK
group is composed of GRK2, GRK3, and similar proteins.
GRK2 and GRK3 are both widely expressed in many tissues,
although GRK2 is present at higher levels. They contain
an N-terminal RGS homology (RH) domain, a central
catalytic domain, and C-terminal pleckstrin homology
(PH) domain that mediates PIP2 and G protein
betagamma-subunit translocation to the membrane. GRK2
(also called beta-ARK or beta-ARK1) is important in
regulating several cardiac receptor responses. It plays
a role in cardiac development and in hypertension.
Deletion of GRK2 in mice results in embryonic lethality,
caused by hypoplasia of the ventricular myocardium. GRK2
also plays important roles in the liver (as a regulator
of portal blood pressure), in immune cells, and in the
nervous system. Altered GRK2 expression has been
reported in several disorders including major
depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and
Parkinsonism.

It is found in endothelial cells, both B- and T-cells,
and a variety of myeloid cells including mast cells,
erythroid cells, platelets, macrophages and neutrophils.
Rlk is expressed in T-cells and mast cell lines. Tec and

(MEKK2) subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze
the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
MEKK2 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. MEKK2 is a mitogen-activated protein kinase
(MAPK) kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MKKK or MAP3K), that
phosphorylates and activates the MAPK kinase MEK5 (or
MKK5), which in turn phosphorylates and activates
extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5). The ERK5
cascade plays roles in promoting cell proliferation,
differentiation, neuronal survival, and neuroprotection.
MEKK2 also activates ERK1/2, c-Jun N-terminal kinase
(JNK) and p38 through their respective MAPKKs MEK1/2,
JNK-activating kinase 2 (JNKK2), and MKK3/6. MEKK2 plays
roles in T cell receptor signaling, immune synapse
formation, cytokine gene expression, as well as in EGF
and FGF receptor signaling.

growth in rich nutrient medium. Moreover, despite a low
primary sequence similarity, the YccP structure closely
resembles the non-homologous C-terminal RNA-binding

MAP/ERK Kinase (MEK) 2 subfamily, catalytic (c) domain.
PKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group
from ATP to serine/threonine or tyrosine residues on
protein substrates. The MEK subfamily is part of a
larger superfamily that includes the catalytic domains
of other protein serine/threonine kinases, protein
tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
3-kinase. The mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase
signaling pathways are important mediators of cellular
responses to extracellular signals. The pathways involve
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
and activated by a MAPK kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MKKK).
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
retardation in patients.

by cyclins A, B, and E. The CDK1/cyclin A complex
controls G2 phase entry and progression. CDK1/cyclin A2
has also been implicated as an important regulator of S
phase events. The CDK1/cyclin B complex is critical for
G2 to M phase transition. It induces mitosis by
activating nuclear enzymes that regulate chromatin
condensation, nuclear membrane degradation,
mitosis-specific microtubule and cytoskeletal
reorganization. CDK1 also associates with cyclin E and
plays a role in the entry into S phase. CDK1
transcription is stable throughout the cell cycle but is
modulated in some pathological conditions. It may play a
role in regulating apoptosis under these conditions. In
breast cancer cells, HER2 can mediate apoptosis by
inactivating CDK1. Activation of CDK1 may contribute to

proliferation, survival, and differentiation. Lyn is
expressed in B lymphocytes and myeloid cells. It
exhibits both positive and negative regulatory roles in
B cell receptor (BCR) signaling. Lyn, as well as Fyn and
Blk, promotes B cell activation by phosphorylating ITAMs
(immunoreceptor tyr activation motifs) in CD19 and in Ig

from the AGC family and a C-terminal kinase domain (CTD)
from the CAMK family, similar to 90 kDa ribosomal
protein S6 kinases (RSKs). MSKs are activated by two
major signaling cascades, the Ras-MAPK and p38 stress
kinase pathways, which trigger phosphorylation in the
activation loop (A-loop) of the CTD of MSK. The active
CTD phosphorylates the hydrophobic motif (HM) of NTD,
which facilitates the phosphorylation of the A-loop and
activates the NTD, which in turn phosphorylates
downstream targets. MSK2 and MSK1 play nonredundant
roles in activating histone H3 kinases, which play
pivotal roles in compaction of the chromatin fiber. MSK2
is the required H3 kinase in response to stress stimuli
and activation of the p38 MAPK pathway. MSK2 also plays
a role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis.

comprise the largest subfamily of receptor tyr kinases
(RTKs). In general, class EphA receptors bind
GPI-anchored ephrin-A ligands. There are ten vertebrate
EphA receptors (EphA1-10), which display promiscuous
interactions with six ephrin-A ligands. EphRs contain an
ephrin binding domain and two fibronectin repeats
extracellularly, a transmembrane segment, and a
cytoplasmic tyr kinase domain. Binding of the ephrin
ligand to EphR requires cell-cell contact since both are
anchored to the plasma membrane. The resulting
downstream signals occur bidirectionally in both
EphR-expressing cells (forward signaling) and
ephrin-expressing cells (reverse signaling). Ephrin/EphR
interaction mainly results in cell-cell repulsion or
adhesion, making it important in neural development and
plasticity, cell morphogenesis, cell-fate determination,
embryonic development, tissue patterning, and
angiogenesis. The EphA2 receptor is overexpressed in
tumor cells and tumor blood vessels in a variety of
cancers including breast, prostate, lung, and colon. As
a result, it is an attractive target for drug design
since its inhibition could affect several aspects of
tumor progression.

structural characteristics of their regulatory domain.
PKCs undergo three phosphorylations in order to take

phosphatidylserine (PS) for activation. There are four
cPKC isoforms, named alpha, betaI, betaII, and gamma.
The PKC beta isoforms (I and II), generated by

microangiopathy such as ischemia, neovascularization,
and abnormal vasodilator function. PKC-beta also plays

>gnl|CDD|173655 cd05110, PTKc_HER4, Catalytic domain of the Protein Tyrosine
Kinase, HER4. Protein Tyrosine Kinase (PTK) family;
HER4 (ErbB4); 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. HER4 is a
member of the EGFR (HER, ErbB) subfamily of proteins,
which are receptor tyr kinases (RTKs) containing an
extracellular EGF-related ligand-binding region, a
transmembrane helix, and a cytoplasmic region with a tyr
kinase domain and a regulatory C-terminal tail. Unlike
other tyr kinases, phosphorylation of the activation
loop of EGFR proteins is not critical to their
activation. Instead, they are activated by
ligand-induced dimerization, leading to the
phosphorylation of tyr residues in the C-terminal tail,
which serve as binding sites for downstream signaling
molecules. Ligands that bind HER4 fall into two groups,
the neuregulins (or heregulins) and some EGFR (HER1)
ligands including betacellulin, HBEGF, and epiregulin.
All four neuregulins (NRG1-4) interact with HER4. Upon
ligand binding, HER4 forms homo- or heterodimers with
other HER proteins. HER4 is essential in embryonic
development. It is implicated in mammary gland, cardiac,
and neural development. As a postsynaptic receptor of
NRG1, HER4 plays an important role in synaptic
plasticity and maturation. The impairment of NRG1/HER4
signaling may contribute to schizophrenia.

Serine/Threonine Kinase, Mammalian Ste20-like protein
kinase 4. Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), mammalian
Ste20-like protein kinase 4 (MST4) subfamily, catalytic

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. MST4 is sometimes
referred to as MASK (MST3 and SOK1-related kinase). It
plays a role in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)
signaling during cytoskeletal rearrangement,
morphogenesis, and apoptosis. It influences cell growth
and transformation by modulating the extracellular
signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. MST4 may also
play a role in tumor formation and progression. It
localizes in the Golgi apparatus by interacting with the
Golgi matrix protein GM130 and may play a role in cell
migration.

Kinase, Cyclin-Dependent protein Kinase 7.
Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Cyclin-Dependent
protein Kinase 7 (CDK7) subfamily, catalytic (c) domain.
STKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group
from ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein
substrates. The CDK7 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. CDKs belong to a large family
of STKs that are regulated by their cognate cyclins.
Together, they are involved in the control of cell-cycle
progression, transcription, and neuronal function. CDK7
plays essential roles in the cell cycle and in
transcription. It associates with cyclin H and MAT1 and
acts as a CDK-Activating Kinase (CAK) by phosphorylating
and activating cell cycle CDKs (CDK1/2/4/6). In the
brain, it activates CDK5. CDK7 is also a component of
the general transcription factor TFIIH, which
phosphorylates the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA
polymerase II when it is bound with unphosphorylated
DNA, as present in the pre-initiation complex. Following
phosphorylation, the CTD dissociates from the DNA which
allows transcription initiation.

Together, they are involved in the control of cell-cycle
progression, transcription, and neuronal function. CDK4
partners with all three D-type cyclins (D1, D2, and D3)
and is also regulated by INK4 inhibitors. It is active
towards the retinoblastoma (pRb) protein and plays a
role in regulating the early G1 phase of the cell cycle.
It is expressed ubiquitously and is localized in the
nucleus. CDK4 also shows kinase activity towards Smad3,
a signal transducer of transforming growth factor
(TGF)-beta signaling which modulates transcription and
plays a role in cell proliferation and apoptosis. CDK4
is inhibited by the p21 inhibitor and is specifically
mutated in human melanoma.
