Abstract excerpt
Protein phosphorylation catalysed by protein kinases is an important mechanism for signal transduction in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. A novel gene, pknD, encoding a protein similar to eukaryotic-type protein kinases, was cloned from Anabaena sp. PCC7120. The N-terminal region of PknD is 60% identical to that of PknA, another putative Ser/Thr kinase from the same strain. Both PknA and PknD have C-terminal...
