Abstract excerpt
Phosphorylation of proteins on serine/threonine residues preceding proline is a key signaling mechanism. The conformation and function of a subset of these phosphorylated proteins is regulated by the prolyl isomerase Pin1 through isomerization of phosphorylated Ser/Thr-Pro bonds. Although young Pin1(-/-) mice have been previously shown to develop normally, we show here that they displayed a range of...
