Checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1) is a conserved protein kinase that is critical to the Cell cycle checkpoint during DNA damage response (DDR). Specifically, CHK1 is the regulatory factor for G2/M…
The regulation of cell size is critical to ensure the functionality of a cell. Besides environmental factors such as nutrients, growth factors and functional load, cell size is also controlled…
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks), also called phosphatidylinositol 3-kinases, are a family of related intracellular signal transducer enzymes. Class I PI3K enzymes consist of four distinct catalytic isoforms, PI3Kα, PI3Kβ, PI3Kδ and…
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are serine/threonine kinases whose activity depends on a regulatory subunit-a cyclin. Based on the sequence of the kinase domain, CDKs belong to the CMGC group of kinases,…
IKKβ is an enzyme that is part of an intracellular signaling pathway activated by cytokines involved in triggering an immune response. Particularly, Phosphorylated IκB degrades and releases NF-κB through the…
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) is a member of the STAT protein family. It is relevant to cell growth and differentiation. Specifically, STAT5 protein has related to…
Chemotherapy is a cornerstone in the development of present-day cancer therapy. Moreover, Chemotherapy is one of the most effective and potent strategies to treat malignant tumors. However, Chemotherapy resistance occurs…
METTL3/14 plays a critical role in disorders associated with abnormal self-renewal, aberrant proliferation, and blocking differentiation of hematopoietic cells. Both METTL3 and METTL14 are upregulated in all subtypes of AML,…
CDKs remain attractive targets for anti-proliferative cancer chemotherapy. they play a central role in cell division and growth. Amongst the cell cycle CDKs, CDK2 has attracted the most attention and…
Lung cancer continues to be the leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Members of the ERBB receptor tyrosine kinase family include EGFR, HER2, HER3, and HER4. They present an attractive option…
