Abstract excerpt
CK2 is a Ser/Thr protein kinase that regulates the activity of the Drosophila basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) repressor M8 encoded by the Enhancer of split Complex (E(spl)C) during neurogenesis. Specifically, phosphorylation appears to elicit a conformational change in an autoinhibited state of M8 to one that is permissive for repression. We describe biochemical and molecular modeling studies that provide new...
