MAST kinases contain an N-terminal domain of unknown
function, a central catalytic domain, and a C-terminal
PDZ domain that mediates protein-protein interactions.
MASTL kinases carry only a catalytic domain which
contains a long insert relative to other kinases. The
fungal kinases in this subfamily harbor other domains in
addition to a central catalytic domain, which also
contains an insert relative to MAST kinases like MASTL.
Rim15 contains a C-terminal signal receiver (REC) domain
while cek1 contains an N-terminal PAS domain. MAST
kinases are cytoskeletal associated kinases of unknown
function that are also expressed at neuromuscular
junctions and postsynaptic densities. The fungal
proteins Rim15 and cek1 are involved in the regulation
of meiosis and mitosis, respectively.

Kinases (STKs), cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA)
subfamily, catalytic (c) subunit. STKs catalyze the
transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The PKA
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). This subfamily is composed of the
cAMP-dependent proteins kinases, PKA and PRKX. The
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.

>gnl|CDD|173660 cd05123, STKc_AGC, Catalytic domain of AGC family Protein
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.

Serine/Threonine Kinase, Novel Protein Kinase C theta.
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.

similar fungal proteins. They contain a central
catalytic domain, which contains an insert relative to
MAST kinases. In addition, Rim15 contains a C-terminal
signal receiver (REC) domain while cek1 contains an
N-terminal PAS domain. Rim15 (or Rim15p) functions as a
regulator of meiosis. It acts as a downstream effector
of PKA and regulates entry into stationary phase (G0).
Thus, it plays a crucial role in regulating yeast
proliferation, differentiation, and aging. Cek1 may
facilitate progression of mitotic anaphase.

postsynaptic densities. MAST1, MAST2, and MAST3 bind and
phosphorylate the tumor suppressor PTEN, and may
contribute to the regulation and stabilization of PTEN.
MAST2 is involved in the regulation of the Fc-gamma
receptor of the innate immune response in macrophages,
and may also be involved in the regulation of the Na+/H+
exchanger NHE3.

Serine/Threonine Kinase, cGMP-dependent protein kinase.
Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), cGMP-dependent protein
kinase (cGK or PKG) subfamily, catalytic (c) domain.
STKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group
from ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein
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.

fungal STKs whose catalytic domains resemble the
phototropin kinase domain. One protein from Neurospora
crassa is called nrc-2. Phototropins are blue-light
receptors that control responses such as phototropism,
stromatal opening, and chloroplast movement in order to
optimize the photosynthetic efficiency of plants. They
are light-activated STKs that contain an N-terminal
photosensory domain and a C-terminal catalytic domain.
The N-terminal domain contains two LOV (Light, Oxygen or
Voltage) domains that binds FMN. Photoexcitation of the
LOV domains results in autophosphorylation at multiple
sites and activation of the catalytic domain. Neurospora
crassa nrc-2 plays a role in growth and development by
controlling entry into the conidiation program.

NDR kinase, group members contain an N-terminal
regulatory (NTR) domain and an insert within the
catalytic domain that contains an auto-inhibitory
sequence. CBK1 is an essential component in the RAM
(regulation of Ace2p activity and cellular
morphogenesis) network. CBK1 and Orb6 play similar roles
in coordinating cell morphology with cell cycle
progression. Ukc1 is involved in morphogenesis,
pathogenicity, and pigment formation. Cot1 plays a role

N-terminal extension, a catalytic kinase domain, and a
long C-terminal extension, which contains a coiled-coil
region encompassing a Rho-binding domain (RBD) and a
pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. ROCK is auto-inhibited
by the RBD and PH domain interacting with the catalytic
domain. It is activated via interaction with Rho GTPases
and is involved in many cellular functions including
contraction, adhesion, migration, motility,
proliferation, and apoptosis. The ROCK subfamily
consists of two isoforms, ROCK1 and ROCK2, which may be
functionally redundant in some systems, but exhibit
different tissue distributions. Both isoforms are
ubiquitously expressed in most tissues, but ROCK2 is
more prominent in brain and skeletal muscle while ROCK1
is more pronounced in the liver, testes, and kidney.
Studies in knockout mice result in different phenotypes,
suggesting that the two isoforms do not compensate for
each other during embryonic development.

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.

substrates. The PK family is part of a larger
superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of RIO
kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline

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.

are known, named alpha, beta and gamma. The DMPK gene is
implicated in myotonic dystrophy 1 (DM1), an inherited
multisystemic disorder with symptoms that include muscle
hyperexcitability, progressive muscle weakness and
wasting, cataract development, testicular atrophy, and
cardiac conduction defects. The genetic basis for DM1 is
the mutational expansion of a CTG repeat in the 3'-UTR
of DMPK. DMPK is expressed in skeletal and cardiac
muscles, and in central nervous tissues. The functional
role of DMPK is not fully understood. It may play a role
in the signal transduction and homeostasis of calcium.
MRCK is activated via interaction with the small GTPase
Cdc42. MRCK/Cdc42 signaling mediates myosin-dependent
cell motility. MRCKgamma is expressed in heart and
skeletal muscles, unlike MRCKalpha and MRCKbeta, which
are expressed ubiquitously.

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.

cytoskeleton organization. PAK deregulation is
associated with tumor development. PAKs from higher
eukaryotes are classified into two groups (I and II),

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

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

overexpressed RNAs in prostate cancer. TAO2 activates
both p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), by
phosphorylating and activating the respective MAP/ERK
kinases (MEKs, also known as MKKs or MAPKKs), MEK3/MEK6
and MKK4/MKK7. TAO2 contains a long C-terminal extension
with autoinhibitory segments. It is activated by the
release of this inhibition and the phosphorylation of
its activation loop serine. TAO2 functions as a
regulator of actin cytoskeletal and microtubule
organization. In addition, it regulates the transforming
growth factor-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), which is a
MAPKKK that plays an essential role in the signaling
pathways of tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin 1

Kinases (STKs), Serum- and Glucocorticoid-induced Kinase
(SGK) subfamily, SGK3 isoform, catalytic (c) domain.
STKs catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group
from ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein
substrates. The SGK 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. There are three isoforms of
SGK, named SGK1, SGK2, and SGK3 (also called
cytokine-independent survival kinase CISK). SGK3 is
expressed in most tissues and is most abundant in the
embryo and adult heart and spleen. It was originally
discovered in a screen for antiapoptotic genes. It
phosphorylates and inhibits the proapoptotic proteins,
Bad and FKHRL1. SGK3 also regulates many transporters,
ion channels, and receptors. It plays a critical role in
hair follicle morphogenesis and hair cycling.

Serine/Threonine Kinase, Never In Mitosis gene A-related
kinase 2. Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Never In
Mitosis gene A (NIMA)-related kinase 2 (Nek2) subfamily,
catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
residues on protein substrates. The Nek2 subfamily is
one of a family of 11 different Neks (Nek1-11) that are
involved in cell cycle control. The Nek 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. The Nek2
subfamily includes Aspergillus nidulans NIMA kinase, the
founding member of the Nek family, which was identified
in a screen for cell cycle mutants prevented from
entering mitosis. NIMA is essential for mitotic entry
and progression through mitosis, and its degradation is
essential for mitotic exit. NIMA is involved in nuclear
membrane fission. Vertebrate Nek2 is a cell
cycle-regulated STK, localized in centrosomes and
kinetochores, that regulates centrosome splitting at the
G2/M phase. It also interacts with other mitotic kinases
such as Polo-like kinase 1 and may play a role in
spindle checkpoint. An increase in the expression of the
human NEK2 gene is strongly associated with the
progression of non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

expressed and is under transcriptional control of
numerous stimuli including cell stress (cell shrinkage),
serum, hormones (gluco- and mineralocorticoids),
gonadotropins, growth factors, interleukin-6, and other
cytokines. It plays roles in sodium retention and
potassium elimination in the kidney, nutrient transport,
salt sensitivity, memory consolidation, and cardiac
repolarization. A common SGK1 variant is associated with
increased blood pressure and body weight. SGK1 may also
contribute to tumor growth, neurodegeneration, fibrosing
disease, and ischemia.

subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze 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).
