>gnl|CDD|132978 cd06647, STKc_PAK_I, Catalytic domain of the Protein
           Serine/Threonine Kinase, Group I p21-activated kinase.
           Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), p21-activated kinase
           (PAK) subfamily, Group I, 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. 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.

           Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), p21-activated kinase
           (PAK) 2, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze the
           transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to

           PAK2 belongs to group I. 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). PAK2 plays a
           role in pro-apoptotic signaling. It is cleaved and
           activated by caspases leading to morphological changes
           during apoptosis. PAK2 is also activated in response to
           a variety of stresses including DNA damage,
           hyperosmolarity, serum starvation, and contact
           inhibition, and may play a role in coordinating the
           stress response. PAK2 also contributes to cancer cell
           invasion through a mechanism distinct from that of PAK1.

           for PIX (PAK-interacting exchange factor). PAK3 is
           highly expressed in the brain. It is implicated in
           neuronal plasticity, synapse formation, dendritic spine
           morphogenesis, cell cycle progression, neuronal
           migration, and apoptosis. Inactivating mutations in the
           PAK3 gene cause X-linked non-syndromic mental
           retardation, the severity of which depends on the site
           of the mutation.

           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.

>gnl|CDD|173659 cd05122, PKc_STE, Catalytic domain of STE family Protein Kinases.
           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.

           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 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.

           is not required for viability, but together with PAK6,
           it is required for normal levels of locomotion and
           activity, and for learning and memory. PAK5 cooperates

           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

           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

           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

           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.

           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

           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

           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

           acids 2 (TAO2) subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs
           catalyze the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from
           ATP to serine/threonine residues on protein substrates.
           The TAO 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. TAO proteins possess mitogen-activated protein
           kinase (MAPK) kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MAP3K or MKKK)
           activity. MAPK signaling cascades are important in
           mediating cellular responses to extracellular signals.
           Human TAO2 is also known as prostate-derived Ste20-like
           kinase (PSK) and was identified in a screen for
           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
           (IL-1), and Toll-like receptor (TLR).

           phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
           3-kinase. MEKK4 is a mitogen-activated protein kinase
           (MAPK) kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MKKK or MAP3K), that
           phosphorylates and activates 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. MEKK4 activates the c-Jun
           N-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK signaling pathways
           by directly activating their respective MAPKKs,
           MKK4/MKK7 and MKK3/MKK6. 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. MEKK4 also plays roles in
           the re-polarization of the actin cytoskeleton in
           response to osmotic stress, in the proper closure of the
           neural tube, in cardiovascular development, and in

           and activating MKK4/MKK7. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae,
           TAO3 is a component of the RAM (regulation of Ace2p
           activity and cellular morphogenesis) signaling pathway.
           TAO3 is upregulated in retinal ganglion cells after
           axotomy, and may play a role in apoptosis.

           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 from higher
           eukaryotes are classified into two groups (I and II),
           according to their biochemical and structural features.
           PAK6 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. PAK6 may play a role in stress responses
           through its activation by the mitogen-activated protein
           kinase (MAPK) p38 and MAPK kinase 6 (MKK6) pathway. PAK6
           is highly expressed in the brain. It is not required for
           viability, but together with PAK5, it is required for
           normal levels of locomotion and activity, and for
           learning and memory. Increased expression of PAK6 is
           found in primary and metastatic prostate cancer. PAK6

           important role in regulating mitotic progression, which
           is required for both chromosome congression and

           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.

           participate in some MAPK signaling pathways by
           activating a MAPK kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MAP3K or
           MKKK). TNIK is an effector of Rap2, a small GTP-binding
           protein from the Ras family. TNIK specifically activates
           the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway and plays a
           role in regulating the actin cytoskeleton.

           cerevisiae, and related proteins. Both fission yeast
           Pek1 and baker's yeast MKK2 are components of the cell
           integrity MAPK pathway. In fission yeast, Pek1
           phosphorylates and activates the MAPK Pmk1/Spm1 and is
           regulated by the MAPKKK Mkh1. In baker's yeast, the
           pathway involves the MAPK Slt2, the MAPKKs MKK1 and
           MKK2, and the MAPKKK Bck1. The cell integrity MAPK
           cascade is activated by multiple stress conditions, and
           is essential  in cell wall construction, morphogenesis,
           cytokinesis, and ion homeostasis.

           serine/threonine kinases (STKs), protein tyrosine
           kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase,
           choline kinase, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. The
           pseudokinase domain shows similarity to protein kinases
           but lacks crucial residues for catalytic activity. STRAD
           forms a complex with the scaffolding protein MO25, and
           the STK, LKB1, resulting in the activation of the
           kinase. In the complex, LKB1 phosphorylates and
           activates adenosine monophosphate-activated protein
           kinases (AMPKs), which regulate cell energy metabolism
           and cell polarity. LKB1 is a tumor suppressor linked to
           the rare inherited disease, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome,
           which is characterized by a predisposition to benign
           polyps and hyperpigmentation of the buccal mucosa. There
           are two forms of STRAD, alpha and beta, that complex
           with LKB1 and MO25. The structure of STRAD-alpha is
           available and shows that this protein binds ATP, has an
           ordered activation loop, and adopts a closed
           conformation typical of fully active protein kinases. It
           does not possess activity due to nonconservative
           substitutions of essential catalytic residues. ATP
           binding enhances the affinity of STRAD for MO25.  The
           conformation of STRAD-alpha stabilized through ATP and
           MO25 may be needed to activate LKB1.

           (MAP) kinase signaling pathways are important mediators
           of cellular responses to extracellular signals. The
           pathways involve a triple kinase core cascade comprising
           of 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). 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

           MKK7 is a dual-specificity PK that phosphorylates and

           (JNK), on specific threonine and tyrosine residues.
           Although MKK7 is capable of dual phosphorylation, it
           prefers to phosphorylate the threonine residue of JNK.
           Thus, optimal activation of JNK requires both MKK4 (not

           activated by cytokines. MKK7 is essential for liver
           formation during embryogenesis. It plays roles in G2/M
           cell cycle arrest and cell growth. In addition, it is

           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

           activation of S6 kinase by amino acids and for the
           phosphorylation of the mTOR-regulated inhibitor of
           eukaryotic initiation factor 4E. mTOR regulates ribosome
           biogenesis and protein translation, and is frequently

           subfamily, pseudokinase domain. The STRAD alpha
           subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that includes
           the catalytic domains of serine/threonine kinases
           (STKs), protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases,
           aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and
           phosphoinositide 3-kinase. The pseudokinase domain shows
           similarity to protein kinases but lacks crucial residues
           for catalytic activity. STRAD forms a complex with the
           scaffolding protein MO25, and the STK, LKB1, resulting
           in the activation of the kinase. In the complex, LKB1
           phosphorylates and activates adenosine
           monophosphate-activated protein kinases (AMPKs), which
           regulate cell energy metabolism and cell polarity. LKB1
           is a tumor suppressor linked to the rare inherited
           disease, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, which is characterized
           by a predisposition to benign polyps and
           hyperpigmentation of the buccal mucosa. There are two
           forms of STRAD, alpha and beta, that complex with LKB1
           and MO25. The structure of STRAD-alpha is available and
           shows that this protein binds ATP, has an ordered
           activation loop, and adopts a closed conformation
           typical of fully active protein kinases. It does not
           possess activity due to nonconservative substitutions of
           essential catalytic residues. ATP binding enhances the
           affinity of STRAD for MO25.  The conformation of
           STRAD-alpha, stabilized through ATP and MO25, may be
           needed to activate LKB1. A mutation which results in a
           truncation of a C-terminal part of the human STRAD-alpha
           pseudokinase domain and disrupts its association with
           LKB1, leads to PMSE (polyhydramnios, megalencephaly,
           symptomatic epilepsy) syndrome. Several splice variants
           of STRAD-alpha exist which exhibit different effects on
           the localization and activation of LKB1.

           signaling pathways are important mediators of cellular
           responses to extracellular signals. The pathways involve
           a triple kinase core cascade comprising the MAP kinase

           kinase (MAPKK or MKK), which itself is phosphorylated
           and activated by a MAPK kinase kinase (MAPKKK or MKKK).
           MKK3 and MKK6 are dual-specificity PKs that
           phosphorylate and activate their downstream target, p38
           MAPK, on specific threonine and tyrosine residues.
           MKK3/6 plays roles in the regulation of cell cycle
           progression, cytokine- and stress-induced apoptosis,
           oncogenic transformation, and adult tissue regeneration.
           In addition, MKK6 plays a critical role in osteoclast
           survival in inflammatory disease while MKK3 is

           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

           Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), Apoptosis
           signal-regulating kinase (ASK) subfamily, catalytic (c)
           domain. STKs catalyze the transfer of the
           gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
           residues on protein substrates. The ASK 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. Subfamily members
           are mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase
           kinases (MAPKKKs or MKKKs or MAP3Ks) and include ASK1,
           ASK2, and MAPKKK15. MAPKKKs 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. ASK1 (also called
           MAPKKK5) functions in the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)
           and p38 MAPK signaling pathways by directly activating
           their respective MAPKKs, MKK4/MKK7 and MKK3/MKK6. It
           plays important roles in cytokine and stress responses,
           as well as in reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated
           cellular responses. ASK1 is implicated in various
           diseases mediated by oxidative stress including
           inschemic heart disease, hypertension, vessel injury,
           brain ischemia, Fanconi anemia, asthma, and pulmonary
           edema, among others. ASK2 (also called MAPKKK6)
           functions only in a heteromeric complex with ASK1, and
           can activate ASK1 by direct phosphorylation. The
           function of MAPKKK15 is still unknown.

           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. 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,
           proliferation, and polarity.

           protein kinases but lacks crucial residues for catalytic
           activity. STRAD forms a complex with the scaffolding
           protein MO25, and the STK, LKB1, resulting in the
           activation of the kinase. In the complex, LKB1
           phosphorylates and activates adenosine
           monophosphate-activated protein kinases (AMPKs), which
           regulate cell energy metabolism and cell polarity. LKB1
           is a tumor suppressor linked to the rare inherited
           disease, Peutz-Jeghers syndrome, which is characterized

           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

           including differentiation, proliferation, migration, and
           apoptosis. They are also implicated in the pathogenesis
           of many diseases including multiple types of cancer,

           pathways involve a triple kinase core cascade comprising
           of the MAPK, which is phosphorylated and activated by a
           MAPK kinase (MAP2K or MKK), which itself is
           phosphorylated and activated by a MAPK kinase kinase
           (MAP3K or MKKK). Each cascade is activated either by a

           p38delta 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. p38 kinases are mitogen-activated protein
           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. p38delta, also called MAPK13, is found in
           skeletal muscle, heart, lung, testis, pancreas, and
           small intestine. It regulates microtubule function by
           phosphorylating Tau. It activates the c-jun promoter and
           plays a role in G2 cell cycle arrest. It also controls
           the degration of c-Myb, which is associated with myeloid
           leukemia and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer.
           p38delta is the main isoform involved in regulating the
           differentiation and apoptosis of keratinocytes.

           (PKs), catalytic (c) domain. PKs catalyze the transfer
           of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
           serine/threonine or tyrosine residues on protein
           substrates. The PK family is part of a larger
           superfamily that includes the catalytic domains of RIO
           kinases, aminoglycoside phosphotransferase, choline
           kinase, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and
           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.

           Kinase, MAP/ERK Kinase 1.  Protein kinases (PKs),
           MAP/ERK kinase (MEK) 1 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

           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).
           MEK1 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 MEK1, 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 MEK1,
           cause cardiofaciocutaneous (CFC) syndrome, a condition
           leading to multiple congenital anomalies and mental

           Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Cyclin-dependent
           protein kinase like 1 (CDKL1) and CDKL4 subfamily,

           gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to serine/threonine
           residues on protein substrates. The CDKL1 and CDKL4
           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. CDKL1, also called
           p42 KKIALRE, is a glial protein that is upregulated in
           gliosis. It is present in neuroblastoma and A431 human
           carcinoma cells, and may be implicated in neoplastic
           transformation. The function of CDKL4 is unknown.

           Serine/threonine kinases (STKs), MAP/ERK kinase kinase 3
           (MEKK3) subfamily, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze
           the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
           serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
           MEKK3 subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that

           protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
           phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
           3-kinase. MEKK3 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.
           MEKK3 plays an essential role in embryonic angiogenesis
           and early heart development. In addition, MEKK3 is
           involved in interleukin-1 receptor and Toll-like
           receptor 4 signaling. It is also a specific regulator of
           the proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and GM-CSF in some
           immune cells. MEKK3 also regulates calcineurin, which
           plays a critical role in T cell activation, apoptosis,
           skeletal myocyte differentiation, and cardiac
           hypertrophy.

>gnl|CDD|133314 cd04114, Rab30, Rab GTPase family 30 (Rab30).  Rab30 subfamily.
           Rab30 appears to be associated with the Golgi stack. It
           is expressed in a wide variety of tissue types and in
           humans maps to chromosome 11. GTPase activating proteins
           (GAPs) interact with GTP-bound Rab and accelerate the
           hydrolysis of GTP to GDP. Guanine nucleotide exchange
           factors (GEFs) interact with GDP-bound Rabs to promote
           the formation of the GTP-bound state. Rabs are further
           regulated by guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitors
           (GDIs), which facilitate Rab recycling by masking
           C-terminal lipid binding and promoting cytosolic
           localization. Most Rab GTPases contain a lipid
           modification site at the C-terminus, with sequence
           motifs CC, CXC, or CCX. Lipid binding is essential for
           membrane attachment, a key feature of most Rab proteins.
           Due to the presence of truncated sequences in this CD,
           the lipid modification site is not available for
           annotation.

           highly hydrophobic probable integral membrane family
           belong to two classes. In one, a single copy of the
           region modeled by This model represents essentially the
           full length of a strongly hydrophobic protein of about
           700 to 900 residues (variable because of long inserts in
           some). The domain architecture of the other class
           consists of an additional N-terminal region, two copies
           of the region represented by this model, and three to
           four repeats of TPR, or tetratricopeptide repeat. The
           unusual species range includes several Archaea, several
           Chloroflexi, and Clostridium phytofermentans. An unusual
           motif YYYxG is present, and we suggest the name
           Chlor_Arch_YYY protein. The function is unknown.
