Mechanism of activation of Pak1 kinase by membrane localization.

Oncogene - 21 Jan 1999

Lu W, Mayer B J

Abstract excerpt

Pak kinases are a family of serine/threonine protein kinases homologous to Ste20p of yeast. Paks can be activated in vivo and in vitro by binding to GTP-bound Cdc42 and Rac1, members of the Rho family of small GTPases implicated in regulating the organization of the actin cytoskeleton. We have previously reported that the SH2/SH3-containing adaptor protein Nck binds Pak kinase through its second SH3 domain. Pak1...
