Accepted name: bacterial tyrosine kinase
Reaction: ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate
Other name(s): BY-kinase; bacterial protein tyrosine kinase
Systematic name: ATP:[protein]-L-tyrosine O-phosphotransferase (bacterial-type)
Comments: This family of enzymes includes most of the bacterial tyrosine kinases. These enzymes do not share sequence or structural homology with eukaryotic tyrosine kinases, and exploit ATP/GTP-binding Walker motifs to catalyse autophosphorylation and substrate phosphorylation on tyrosine. Two subfamilies have been defined: P-type enzymes contain an N-terminal transmembrane portion and an extracellular hairpin loop domain. The intracellular portion comprises the catalytic domain and a tyrosine-rich C-terminal domain that contains the site for autophosphorylation. In F-type enzymes the extracellular transmembrane domain and the intracellular catalytic domain are two independent proteins encoded by two separate genes. The majority of characterized bacterial tyrosine kinases regulate the production and export of capsular and extracellular polysaccharides, but other members are involved in many other functions.

Phosphorylation of TIA-1 precedes the onset of DNA fragmentation.

Accepted name: IκB kinase
Reaction: ATP + [IκB protein] = ADP + [IκB phosphoprotein]
Other name(s): CHUK; IKBKA; IKBKB; IKK; IKK-1; IKK-2; inhibitor of NFκB kinase; inhibitor of NF-κB kinase; STK12; TANK-binding kinase 1; TBK1
Systematic name: ATP:[IκB protein] phosphotransferase
Comments: The enzyme phosphorylates IκB proteins at specific serine residues, which marks them for destruction via the ubiquitination pathway. Subsequent degradation of the IkB complex (IKK) activates NF-κB, a translation factor that plays an important role in inflammation, immunity, cell proliferation and apoptosis. If the serine residues are replaced by threonine residues, the activity of the enzyme is decreased considerably.

Accepted name: cAMP-dependent protein kinase
Reaction: ATP + a [protein]-(L-serine/L-threonine) = ADP + a [protein]-(L-serine/L-threonine) phosphate
Glossary: 3',5'-cyclic-AMP = cAMP
Other name(s): PKA; protein kinase A; PKA catalytic (C) subunit; A kinase; ATP:protein phosphotransferase (cAMP-dependent)
Systematic name: ATP:protein Ser/Thr-phosphotransferase (3',5'-cAMP-dependent)
Comments: This eukaryotic enzyme recognizes the sequence -Arg-Arg-X-Ser*/Thr*-Hpo, where * indicates the phosphorylated residue and Hpo indicates a hydrophobic residue.The inactive holoenzyme is a heterotetramer composed of two regulatory (R) subunits and two catalytic (C) subunits. Each R subunit occludes the active site of a C subunit and contains two binding sites for 3',5'-cyclic-AMP (cAMP). Binding of cAMP activates the enzyme by causing conformational changes that release two free monomeric C subunits from a dimer of the R subunits, i.e. R2C2 + 4 cAMP = R2(cAMP)4 + 2 C. Activity requires phosphorylation of a conserved Thr in the activation loop (T-loop) sequence (Thr198 in human Cα; Thr224 in budding yeast Tpk2), installed by auto-phosphorylation or by the 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDPK1). Certain R2C2 combinations can be localized to particular subcellular regions by their association with diverse species of 'A Kinase-Anchoring Proteins' (AKAPs). The enzyme has been characterized from many organisms. Humans have three C units (Cα, Cβ, and Cγ) encoded by the paralogous genes PRKACA, PRKACB and PRKACG, respectively, and four R subunits (R1α, RIβ, RIIα and RIIβ), encoded by PKRAR1A, PKRAR1B, PKRAR2A and PKRAR2B, respectively. Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) has three C subunits (Tpk1, Tpk2, and Tpk3) encoded by the paralogous genes TPK1, TPK2 and TPK3, respectively, and a single R subunit (Bcy1) encoded by the BCY1 gene. Some validated substrates of the enzyme include cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB), phosphorylase kinase α subunit (PHKA), and tyrosine 3-monooxygenase (TH) in mammals; Adr1, Whi3, Nej1, and Pyk1 in yeast.

Accepted name: cGMP-dependent protein kinase
Reaction: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein
Other name(s): 3':5'-cyclic GMP-dependent protein kinase; cGMP-dependent protein kinase Iβ; guanosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate-dependent protein kinase; PKG; PKG 1α; PKG 1β; PKG II; STK23
Systematic name: ATP:protein phosphotransferase (cGMP-dependent)
Comments: cGMP is required to activate this enzyme. The enzyme occurs as a dimer in higher eukaryotes. The C-terminal region of each polypeptide chain contains the catalytic domain that includes the ATP and protein substrate binding sites. This domain catalyses the phosphorylation by ATP to specific serine or threonine residues in protein substrates [3]. The enzyme also has two allosteric cGMP-binding sites (sites A and B). Binding of cGMP causes a conformational change that is associated with activation of the kinase [4].

Accepted name: phosphorylase kinase
Reaction: 2 ATP + phosphorylase b = 2 ADP + phosphorylase a
Other name(s): dephosphophosphorylase kinase; glycogen phosphorylase kinase; PHK; phosphorylase b kinase; phosphorylase B kinase; phosphorylase kinase (phosphorylating); STK17
Systematic name: ATP:phosphorylase-b phosphotransferase
Comments: Requires Ca2+ and calmodulin for activity. The enzyme phosphorylates a specific serine residue in each of the subunits of the dimeric phosphorylase b. For muscle phosphorylase but not liver phosphorylase, this is accompanied by a further dimerization to form a tetrameric phosphorylase. The enzyme couples muscle contraction with energy production via glycogenolysis—glycolysis by catalysing the Ca2+-dependent phosphorylation and activation of glycogen phosphorylase b [5]. The γ subunit of the tetrameric αβγδ enzyme is the catalytic subunit.

Systematic name: ATP:protein phosphotransferase (MAPKK-activated)
Comments: Phosphorylation of specific tyrosine and threonine residues in the activation loop of this enzyme by EC 2.7.12.2, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) is necessary for enzyme activation. Once activated, the enzyme phosphorylates target substrates on serine or threonine residues followed by a proline [6]. A distinguishing feature of all MAPKs is the conserved sequence Thr-Xaa-Tyr (TXY). Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction pathways are among the most widespread mechanisms of cellular regulation. Mammalian MAPK pathways can be recruited by a wide variety of stimuli including hormones (e.g. insulin and growth hormone), mitogens (e.g. epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor), vasoactive peptides (e.g. angiotensin-II and endothelin), inflammatory cytokines of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) family and environmental stresses such as osmotic shock, ionizing radiation and ischaemic injury.

Systematic name: ATP:protein phosphotransferase (MAPKKKK-activated)
Comments: This enzyme phosphorylates and activates its downstream protein kinase, EC 2.7.12.2, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) but requires MAPKKKK for activation. Some members of this family can be activated by p21-activated kinases (PAK/STE20) or Ras. While c-Raf and c-Mos activate the classical MAPK/ERK pathway, MEKK1 and MEKK2 preferentially activate the c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase(JNK)/stress-activated protein kinase (SAPK) pathway [2]. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction pathways are among the most widespread mechanisms of cellular regulation. Mammalian MAPK pathways can be recruited by a wide variety of stimuli including hormones (e.g. insulin and growth hormone), mitogens (e.g. epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor), vasoactive peptides (e.g. angiotensin-II and endothelin), inflammatory cytokines of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) family and environmental stresses such as osmotic shock, ionizing radiation and ischaemic injury.

Reaction: ADP + [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] = AMP + [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] phosphate
Other name(s): PPDK regulatory protein (ambiguous); pyruvate; phosphate dikinase regulatory protein (ambiguous); bifunctional dikinase regulatory protein (ambiguous)
Systematic name: ADP:[pyruvate, phosphate dikinase] phosphotransferase
Comments: The enzymes from the plants Zea mays (maize) and Arabidopsis thaliana are bifunctional and catalyse both the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of EC 2.7.9.1 (pyruvate, phosphate dikinase). cf. EC 2.7.4.27, [pyruvate, phosphate dikinase]-phosphate phosphotransferase [2-5]. The enzyme is specific for a reaction intermediate form of EC 2.7.9.1EC 2.7.9.1, and phosphorylates a threonine located adjacent to the catalytic histidine. The phosphorylation only takes place if the histidine is already phosphorylated [3-5].

Accepted name: CRIK-subfamily protein kinase
Reaction: (1) ATP + [protein]-L-serine = ADP + [protein]-O-phospho-L-serine
(2) ATP + [protein]-L-threonine = ADP + [protein]-O-phospho-L-threonine
Other name(s): CRIK; CIT; SGK21; Citron; Citron-K; Sticky/Citron Kinase; Citron Rho-Interacting Kinase
Comments: Requires Mg2+. Peptide array data show a preference for phosphorylation of Thr over Ser and a preference for basic residues in the -5 to -1 positions [1]. CRIK is an animal-specific protein kinase that phosphorylates myosin light chain (cf. EC 2.7.11.18, myosin-light-chain kinase) and is involved in cytokinesis in both mammals and Drosophila. Human CRIK phosphorylates myosin light chain, MYL9/MRLC1 on T19/S20 [2] and GLI2 on S149 [3]. Drosophila CRIK (sticky) interacts with the kinesins Nebbish and Pavarotti, and human CRIK interacts with their orthologs, KIF14 and KIF23/MKLP1 to promote midbody formation during cytokinesis [4]. In Drosophila, CRIK/Sticky catalytic activity was required for this function. Human CRIK is mostly highly expressed in brain, and mutations that alter splicing or kinase activity lead to microcephaly [5, 6], as do knockouts in mouse and rat, and mutations in its interacting partner, the kinesin KIF14 [6].

Accepted name: MASTL-subfamily protein kinase
Reaction: (1) ATP + [endosulfine family protein]-L-serine = ADP + [endosulfine family protein]-O-phospho-L-serine
(2) ATP + [endosulfine family protein]-L-threonine = ADP + [endosulfine family protein]-O-phospho-L-threonine
Glossary: MASTL = microtubule-associated
Other name(s): MASTL; gwl; greatwall kinase; RIM15; microtubule-associated (MASTL)-subfamily-protein kinase.
Systematic name: ATP:[endosulfine family protein] phosphotransferase (Ser/Thr-phosphorylating)
Comments: Requires Mg2+. Peptide array data suggest that MASTL prefers to phosphorylate Ser over Thr, followed at position +1 by a bulky hydrophobic (Met, Leu, Phe or Tyr) and with an aromatic residue in the -2 position [4]. Its main role in animal systems is in the regulation of mitosis by phosphorylating a conserved site on endosulfine family proteins (ENSA and ARPP-19 in human), causing them to inhibit the protein phosphatase 2A-B55 [protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) holoenzyme complex containing a B55-family regulatory subunit] [2].

Other name(s): microtubule-associated serine/threonine-protein kinase; MAST1; MAST2; MAST3; MAST4; MAST205; SAST; IREH1; dop; kin-4
Comments: Requires Mg2+. MAST (Microtubule Associated Serine/Threonine) kinases are eukaryotic-wide kinases with roles in microtubule function, PTEN regulation and a variety of neuronal functions. They are found in most eukaryotes, though lost from most fungi and ciliates. MAST kinases associate with their substrates via their PDZ domains. Substrates include the PTEN phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.67) in human and nematodes, and Dlic (Dynein light intermediate chain) in Drosophila. The latter is phosphorylated on Ser401.

Accepted name: mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase
Reaction: ATP + a protein = ADP + a phosphoprotein
Other name(s): MAP kinase kinase; MAP kinase kinase 4; MAP kinase kinase 7; MAP kinase or ERK kinase; MAP2K; MAPKK; MAPKK1; MEK; MEK1; MEK2; MKK; MKK2; MKK4; MKK6; MKK7; STK27
Systematic name: ATP:protein phosphotransferase (MAPKKK-activated)
Comments: This enzyme is a dual-specific protein kinase and requires mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) for activation. It is required for activation of EC 2.7.11.24, mitogen-activated protein kinase. Phosphorylation of MEK1 by Raf involves phosphorylation of two serine residues [5]. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signal transduction pathways are among the most widespread mechanisms of cellular regulation. Mammalian MAPK pathways can be recruited by a wide variety of stimuli including hormones (e.g. insulin and growth hormone), mitogens (e.g. epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor), vasoactive peptides (e.g. angiotensin-II and endothelin), inflammatory cytokines of the tumour necrosis factor (TNF) family and environmental stresses such as osmotic shock, ionizing radiation and ischaemic injury.
