-
These protein phosphorylations lead to changes of a number of proteins with different functions in the cell.
-
It illustrates how a series of protein phosphorylations in a cascade amplifies the strength of the initial signal.
-
The serial protein phosphorylations then work as a biological amplifying system (see
-
The effects of the transmitters are elicited by a cascade of phosphorylations and dephosphorylations (that is, phosphate molecules are added or removed from the proteins).
-
In the world of proteins, Krebs and his collaborators paved the way for this knowledge by studying also the preceding protein in the chain of phosphorylations, while Fischer concentrated his efforts along other lines and, as recently as some years ago, reported the purification of a special type of phosphate-removing protein.

The example also shows how drugs that influence phosphorylations are used to save transplants threatened by rejection.
-
The expression of TrkB, Pyk2 and ERK phosphorylations were assessed by western blot.
-
We demonstrate here that the mitotic kinase cdc2 directly phosphorylates raptor during mitosis, though we have been unable to demonstrate the contribution those phosphorylations play to overall mitotic progression or mTORC1 signaling during mitosis in the tumor cell settings we have examined thus far.
