Abstract excerpt
Serine/threonine protein kinase ULK3 is implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including autophagy, cell division, and execution of the Sonic hedgehog pathway. However, very little about how its biological activity could be controlled is known. This study focuses on unraveling biochemical insights into the mechanism of inhibition and activation of ULK3. We identify novel phosphorylation sites in ULK3 and...
