Abstract excerpt
Many CMGC group kinases require phosphorylation of a conserved tyrosine residue in the activation loop to achieve catalytic activity. DYRK family members use a distinctive mechanism involving constitutive cis-autophosphorylation of this tyrosine. The structural basis of this process has remained unclear, as it occurs while the kinase is still in an inactive conformation, and the tyrosine does not match the known...
