Autoinhibition of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and activation by soluble inositol hexakisphosphate
10.7554/eLife.06074.001 Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), a Tec-family tyrosine kinase, is
essential for B-cell function. We present crystallographic and biochemical analyses of Btk, which …

The Src module: an ancient scaffold in the evolution of cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases
Tyrosine kinases were first discovered as the protein products of viral oncogenes. We now
know that this large family of metazoan enzymes includes nearly one hundred structurally …

[PDF][PDF] Coupled membrane lipid miscibility and phosphotyrosine-driven protein condensation phase transitions
Lipid miscibility phase separation has long been considered to be a central element of cell
membrane organization. More recently, protein condensation phase transitions, into three-…

Switch-like activation of Bruton's tyrosine kinase by membrane-mediated dimerization
The transformation of molecular binding events into cellular decisions is the basis of most
biological signal transduction. A fundamental challenge faced by these systems is that reliance …

A saturation-mutagenesis analysis of the interplay between stability and activation in Ras
Cancer mutations in Ras occur predominantly at three hotspots: Gly 12, Gly 13, and Gln 61.
Previously, we reported that deep mutagenesis of H-Ras using a bacterial assay identified …

A two-component protein condensate of the EGFR cytoplasmic tail and Grb2 regulates Ras activation by SOS at the membrane
We reconstitute a phosphotyrosine-mediated protein condensation phase transition of the ∼200
residue cytoplasmic tail of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the adaptor …

[HTML][HTML] Holliday junction thermodynamics and structure: Coarse-grained simulations and experiments
Holliday junctions play a central role in genetic recombination, DNA repair and other cellular
processes. We combine simulations and experiments to evaluate the ability of the 3SPN.2 …

Stimulation of the catalytic activity of the tyrosine kinase Btk by the adaptor protein Grb2
The Tec-family kinase Btk contains a lipid-binding Pleckstrin homology and Tec homology (PH-TH)
module connected by a proline-rich linker to a ‘Src module’, an SH3-SH2-kinase unit …

[HTML][HTML] Probing the ion binding site in a DNA Holliday junction using Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET)
Holliday Junctions are critical DNA intermediates central to double strand break repair and
homologous recombination. The junctions can adopt two general forms: open and stacked-X, …
