Cell signalling: kinases & phosphorylation
The way in which the proteins in a cell transmit signals to one another is hugely important for controlling cell division, cell migration and even cell death. If this process goes wrong, it can lead to the onset of diseases such as cancer.
This is the first part of a series of animations exploring cell signalling, this time focusing on kinases and phosphorylations. Within a cell, phosphorylations are a major way in which proteins can transmit chemical signals to one another. In this video, we're exploring what you need in order to perform a phosphorylation, how it works and what happens when proteins are phosphorylated.

https://www.ibiology.org/biochemistry/protein-kinase/#part-2
In this lecture, I have given an overview of protein kinase structure and function using cyclic AMP dependent kinase (PKA) as a prototype for this enzyme superfamily. I have demonstrated what we have learned from the overall structural kinome which allows us to compare many protein kinases and also to appreciate how the highly regulated eukaryotic protein kinase has evolved. By comparing many protein kinase structures, we are beginning to elucidate general rules of architecture. In addition, I have attempted to illustrate how PKA is regulated by cAMP and how it is localized to specific macromolecular complexes through scaffold proteins.

This video is about the Transforming Growth Factor pathway via Receptor Serine/threonine Kinase
A serine/threonine-protein kinase is a kinase enzyme that phosphorylates the OH group of serine or threonine (less common) of substrate proteins. At least 125 of the 500+ human protein kinases are serine/threonine kinases (STK). These kinases switch between active and inactive states depending on the need of the body. On stimulation by specific signals, protein kinase can be activated by several mechanisms, including activator binding, phosphorylation of active sites, and dephosphorylation of inhibitory phosphatases. Some of the examples include:

Receptor Tyrosine Kinase | RTK Signalling
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are the high-affinity cell surface receptors for many polypeptide growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. Of the 90 unique tyrosine kinase genes identified in the human genome, 59 encode receptor tyrosine kinase proteins.
Most RTKs are single subunit receptors but some exist as multimeric complexes, e.g., the insulin receptor that forms disulfide linked dimers in the presence of hormone (insulin); moreover, ligand binding to the extracellular domain induces formation of receptor dimers.[6] Each monomer has a single hydrophobic transmembrane-spanning domain composed of 25 to 38 amino acids, an extracellular N terminal region, and an intracellular C terminal region.

Kinases, its function and different types
#biotechnology #cellsignaling #kinases #phosphorylation
Protein kinases (PTKs) are enzymes that regulate the biological activity of proteins by phosphorylation of specific amino acids with ATP as the source of phosphate, thereby inducing a conformational change from an inactive to an active form of the protein or vice versa.
The human genome contains about 500 protein kinase genes and they constitute about 2% of all human genes. Protein kinases are also found in bacteria and plants. Up to 30% of all human proteins may be modified by kinase activity, and kinases are known to regulate the majority of cellular pathways, especially those involved in signal transduction.

Below are some references of seminal papers in the field. Early sequence alignments of ~100 protein kinases showed remarkable conservation of particular amino acid motifs (1), and these same residues were found to be important to activity when scanning mutagenesis experiments tested activity after sequentially mutating kinase residues (2). While these conserved motifs are far apart in the amino acid sequence, the first structures of a kinase (3, 4) showed that they are all close to ATP and the substrate in three dimensional space. The original list of kinases was massively expanded to 518 members using data gathered from the Human Genome Project (5).

This video is about the Transforming Growth Factor pathway via Receptor Serine/threonine Kinase
A serine/threonine-protein kinase is a kinase enzyme that phosphorylates the OH group of serine or threonine (less common) of substrate proteins. At least 125 of the 500+ human protein kinases are serine/threonine kinases (STK). These kinases switch between active and inactive states depending on the need of the body. On stimulation by specific signals, protein kinase can be activated by several mechanisms, including activator binding, phosphorylation of active sites, and dephosphorylation of inhibitory phosphatases. Some of the examples include:
a. Receptor serine/threonine kinases
b. Protein kinase A (cAMP-dependent protein kinase)
c. Protein kinase C (Ca2+ dependent protein kinase)
RECEPTOR SERINE / THREONINE KINASE
This is a transmembrane receptor that contains an intrinsic serine/threonine kinase, located in the cytoplasmic domain of the receptor. These receptors can interact with several growth factors including Transforming Growth Factor (TGF) β.
A typical serine/threonine receptor contains two subunits;
a. Receptor Type I
b. Receptor Type II
Both of which are required for the activation of receptor.
In mammals, there are seven known type I receptors and five type II receptors.
An activated receptor serine/threonine kinase can lead to the activation of a cascade of intracellular signaling molecules including Smad 2, 3, 4 and adapter proteins. Smads are a family of proteins that form complexes and serve as transcriptional factors and regulate the expression of target genes.
Signaling Mechanism
TGFβ is capable of binding to TGFβ receptor Type II. The binding of TGFβ induces the association of TGFβ receptor Type I with the Type II receptor, allowing the phosphorylation of type I receptor by type II receptor kinase. The Type II receptor phosphorylates serine residues of the Type I receptor, which activates the protein. A complex of Smads including Smad 2 and 3, is activated in response to the activation of TGFβ receptor Type I and initiate interaction with an adapter protein, known as SMAD anchor for receptor activation (SARA) forming a protein complex. The complex of Smad 2, 3 and SARA is recruited to TGFβ receptor Type I, which in turn phosphorylates the Smad complex. SARA orients the R-SMAD such that serine residue on its C-terminal faces the catalytic region of the Type I receptor. The Type I receptor phosphorylates the serine residue of the R-SMAD. Phosphorylation induces a conformational change in the MH2 domain of the R-SMAD and its subsequent dissociation from the receptor complex and SARA. Phosphorylated Smad complex then dissociates from the TGF β receptor Type I and SARA and bind to another Smad molecule, Smad 4 (Co-SMAD), which is a critical molecule mediating the translocation of Smad complex. The Smad 2/3/4 complex serves as a transcriptional factor, moves from cytoplasm to nucleus, interacts with the target genes, and induces gene expression. The phosphorylated RSMAD has a high affinity for a co-SMAD (e.g. SMAD4) and forms a complex with one. The phosphate group does not act as a docking site for coSMAD, rather the phosphorylation opens up an amino acid stretch allowing interaction. The TGF β-activated Smad signaling pathways negatively regulate cell proliferation and differentiation by activating inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases, in resulting cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase. Activation of Smad signaling pathways also induces cell apoptosis (Programmed cell death). SMAD7 competes with other R-SMADs with the Type I receptor and prevents their phosphorylation. It resides in the nucleus and upon TGF beta receptor activation translocates to the cytoplasm where it binds the type I receptor. SMAD6 binds SMAD4 preventing the binding of other R-SMADs with the co-SMAD.
There are three classes of SMAD:
1. The receptor-regulated Smads (R-SMAD) which include SMAD1, SMAD2, SMAD3, SMAD5 and SMAD, 8/9
2. The common-mediator Smad (co-SMAD), includes only SMAD4, which interacts with R-SMADs to participate in signaling
3. The antagonistic or inhibitory SMADs (I-SMADS) which include SMAD6 and SMAD7 which block the activation of R-SMADs and Co-SMADs.

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are the high-affinity cell surface receptors for many polypeptide growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. Of the 90 unique tyrosine kinase genes identified in the human genome, 59 encode receptor tyrosine kinase proteins.
Most RTKs are single subunit receptors but some exist as multimeric complexes, e.g., the insulin receptor that forms disulfide linked dimers in the presence of hormone (insulin); moreover, ligand binding to the extracellular domain induces formation of receptor dimers.[6] Each monomer has a single hydrophobic transmembrane-spanning domain composed of 25 to 38 amino acids, an extracellular N terminal region, and an intracellular C terminal region.
In biochemistry, a kinase is a type of enzyme that transfers phosphate groups (see below) from high-energy donor molecules, such as ATP (see below) to specific target molecules (substrates); the process is termed phosphorylation. The opposite, an enzyme that removes phosphate groups from targets, is known as a phosphatase. Kinase enzymes that specifically phosphorylate tyrosine amino acids are termed tyrosine kinases.
Through diverse means, extracellular ligand binding will typically cause or stabilize receptor dimerization. This allows a tyrosine in the cytoplasmic portion of each receptor monomer to be trans-phosphorylated by its partner receptor, propagating a signal through the plasma membrane.[8] The phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues within the activated receptor creates binding sites for Src homology 2 (SH2) domain- and phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain-containing proteins.Specific proteins containing these domains include Src and phospholipase Cγ. Phosphorylation and activation of these two proteins on receptor binding lead to the initiation of signal transduction pathways. Other proteins that interact with the activated receptor act as adaptor proteins and have no intrinsic enzymatic activity of their own.
