Bacterial Eukaryotic Type Serine-Threonine Protein Kinases: From Structural Biology to Targeted Anti-Infective Drug Design
9 May 2011
Abstract excerpt
Signaling through protein kinases is an evolutionary conserved, widespread language of biological regulation. The eukaryotic type serine-threonine protein kinases (STPKs) found in normal human microbiote and in pathogenic bacteria play a key role in regulation of microbial survival, virulence and pathogenicity. Therefore, down-regulation of bacterial STPKs emerges as an attractive approach to cure infections. In...
