  2. Protein kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase

    A protein kinase is a kinase which selectively modifies other proteins by covalently adding phosphates to them (phosphorylation) as opposed to kinases which modify lipids, carbohydrates, or other molecules.

  3. Kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinase

    Dihydroxyacetone kinase in complex with a non-hydrolyzable ATP analog (AMP-PNP). Coordinates from PDB ID:1UN9. [1] In biochemistry, a kinase (/ ˈ k aɪ n eɪ s, ˈ k ɪ n eɪ s,-eɪ z /) [2] is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of phosphate groups from high-energy, phosphate-donating molecules to specific substrates.

  4. Protein kinase domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_domain

    The protein kinase domain is a structurally conserved protein domain containing the catalytic function of protein kinases. [2] [3] [4] Protein kinases are a group of enzymes that move a phosphate group onto proteins, in a process called phosphorylation. This functions as an on/off switch for many cellular processes, including metabolism ...

  5. Kinome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinome

    In molecular biology, biochemistry and cell signaling the kinome of an organism is the complete set of protein kinases encoded in its genome.Kinases are usually enzymes that catalyze phosphorylation reactions (of amino acids) and fall into several groups and families, e.g., those that phosphorylate the amino acids serine and threonine, those that phosphorylate tyrosine and some that can ...

  7. Mitogen-activated protein kinase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitogen-activated_protein...

    A mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK or MAP kinase) is a type of serine/threonine-specific protein kinases involved in directing cellular responses to a diverse array of stimuli, such as mitogens, osmotic stress, heat shock and proinflammatory cytokines.

  8. Protein kinase A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_A

    In cell biology, protein kinase A (PKA) is a family of serine-threonine kinase [1] whose activity is dependent on cellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP). PKA is also known as cAMP-dependent protein kinase (EC 2.7.11.11). PKA has several functions in the cell, including regulation of glycogen, sugar, and lipid metabolism.

  9. Protein kinase C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_kinase_C

    In cell biology, protein kinase C, commonly abbreviated to PKC (EC 2.7.11.13), is a family of protein kinase enzymes that are involved in controlling the function of other proteins through the phosphorylation of hydroxyl groups of serine and threonine amino acid residues on these proteins, or a member of this family.
