    Therapeutic targeting of CK2 in acute and chronic leukemias

    CK2 is a ubiquitously expressed, constitutively active Ser/Thr protein kinase, which is considered the most pleiotropic protein kinase in the human kinome. Such a pleiotropy explains the involvement of CK2 in ...

    Protein kinase CK2 in hematologic malignancies: reliance on a pivotal cell survival regulator by oncogenic signaling pathways

    CK2 is a multitask kinase whose role is essential for a countless number of cellular processes, many of which are critical for blood cell development. A prevailing task for this kinase rests on counteracting p...

    Pharmacological inhibition of protein kinase CK2 reverts the multidrug resistance phenotype of a CEM cell line characterized by high CK2 level

    Protein kinase CK2 is an ubiquitous and constitutively active kinase, which phosphorylates many cellular proteins and is implicated in the regulation of cell survival, proliferation and transformation. We inve...

    Phosphorylation and activation of the atypical kinase p53-related protein kinase (PRPK) by Akt/PKB

    p53-related protein kinase (PRPK), the human homologue of yeast Bud32, belonging to a small subfamily of atypical protein kinases, is inactive unless it is previously incubated with cell lysates. Here we show ...

    Protein kinase CK2 phosphorylates and upregulates Akt/PKB

    Treatment of Jurkat cells with specific inhibitors of protein kinase CK2 induces apoptosis. Here we provide evidence that the antiapoptotic effect of CK2 can be at least partially mediated by upregulation of t...
