Dissection of MKK6 and p38 Signaling Using Light-Activated Protein Kinases

Rahman, S. M. T., Zhou, W., Deiters, A., & Haugh, J. M. (2023, November 7). CHEMBIOCHEM, Vol. 11.

By: S. Rahman n, W. Zhou*, A. Deiters* & J. Haugh n

author keywords: apoptosis; autophagy; cell death; growth factors; mitogen-activated protein kinases; optogenetics; signal transduction
TL;DR: Although decaging active p38α does not reduce basal ERK activity in cells, it can block growth factor‐stimulated ERK signaling in serum‐starved cells, which clarifies the roles of MKK6 and p38α in dynamic signaling programs, which act in concert to actuate apoptotic death while suppressing cell survival mechanisms.

By: R. Appalabhotla n, M. Butler*, J. Bear* & J. Haugh n

TL;DR: An experimental system in which cells adopt an approximately constant and symmetrical shape and exhibit fast, steady treadmilling in the thin region protruding from the cell is applied, revealing that diffusion alone cannot account for the transport of G-actin to the leading edge.

On the inference of ERK signaling dynamics from protein biosensor measurements

MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF THE CELL, 34(6).

By: S. Rahman n & J. Haugh n

MeSH headings : Biosensing Techniques; Extracellular Signal-Regulated MAP Kinases / metabolism; MAP Kinase Signaling System; Phosphorylation; Signal Transduction
TL;DR: Monitoring ERK signaling using four commonly used translocation- and Förster resonance energy transfer-based biosensors in a common cell stimulation context found that each biosensor responds with unique kinetics; it is clear that there is not a single dynamic signature characterizing the complexity of ERK phosphorylation, translocation, and kinase activity.

author keywords: mathematical modelling; phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K); platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF); Ras; receptor tyrosine kinase; signal transduction
MeSH headings : Animals; Mice; Models, Biological; NIH 3T3 Cells; Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinases / metabolism; Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-akt / metabolism; Receptors, Platelet-Derived Growth Factor / metabolism; Signal Transduction; ras GTPase-Activating Proteins / metabolism
