Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that remove acetyl groups from histone and non-histone proteins. To date, 18 different mammalian HDACs have been identified and divided into four classes: the Class…
The phosphatidylinositol-3 OH kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway contributes to cancer survival, apoptosis, and regulating a variety of cellular processes. In particular, Akt serine/threonine kinase plays a critical role in controlling…
Protein kinases are enzymes that catalyze protein phosphorylation. Obviously, Protein kinases include many types of kinases, such as PKC，PKA, c-Fgr and phosphorylase kinase. Thereinto, PKC, PKA and phosphorylase kinase belong…
mTOR (mammalian target of Rapamycin) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the mTOR gene. mTOR is a serine/threonine protein kinase that regulates cell growth, cell proliferation, cell…
Caspase is a family of cysteine proteases that play essential roles in apoptosis (programmed cell death), necrosis, and inflammation. They are named caspases due to their specific cysteine protease activity-a…
Hsp90 (heat shock protein 90) is a molecular chaperone protein. Specifically, Hsp90 can help other proteins fold correctly, stabilize proteins, resist heat stress, and contribute to protein degradation. It can…
Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) is a catalytic subunit of CDK activated kinase (CAK). CAK is a kinase complex that catalyzes T-ring phosphorylation and activates a variety of cyclin-related kinases, including…
TEA domain (TEAD) transcription factors are sequence-specific DNA binding proteins that regulate transcription. TEAD family transcription factors all contain a DNA-binding domain called a TEA domain. In mammals, TEAD consists…
CBP (cyclic AMP response element-binding protein) and P300 (E1A binding protein) are two non-BET bromodomain oncology targets. Additionally, P300 is a paralogue of CBP, and they conduct similar activity. Specifically,…
SHP2 is a non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) encoded by the human PTPN11 gene. Particularly, SHP2 contains a PTP catalytic domain and two SH2 domains. SHP2 is a ubiquitous PTP…
