Regulation of Par-4 Function by Phosphorylation
This chapter discusses the regulatory role of the phosphorylation of the tumor suppressor protein, Par-4 (PAWR, PRKC, apoptosis Wilm’s tumor 1... -
The oncogenic human B-cell lymphoma MYD88 L265P mutation genocopies activation by phosphorylation at the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain
MYD88 is the key signaling adaptor-protein for Toll-like and interleukin-1 receptors. A somatic L265P mutation within the Toll/interleukin-1 receptor...
