T1 |
0-111 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Multiple activation loop conformations and their regulatory properties in the insulin receptor's kinase domain. |
T2 |
112-253 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Low catalytic efficiency of protein kinases often results from intrasteric inhibition caused by the activation loop blocking the active site. |
T3 |
254-457 |
Sentence |
denotes |
In the insulin receptor's kinase domain, Asp-1161 and Tyr-1162 in the peptide substrate-like sequence of the unphosphorylated activation loop can interact with four invariant residues in the active site: |
T4 |
458-501 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Lys-1085, Asp-1132, Arg-1136, and Gln-1208. |
T5 |
502-651 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Contributions of these six residues to intrasteric inhibition were tested by mutagenesis, and the unphosphorylated kinase domains were characterized. |
T6 |
652-823 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The mutations Q1208S, K1085N, and Y1162F each relieved intrasteric inhibition, increasing catalytic efficiency but without changing the rate-limiting step of the reaction. |
T7 |
824-878 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The mutants R1136Q and D1132N were virtually inactive. |
T8 |
879-1060 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Steric accessibility of the active site was ranked by relative changes in iodide quenching of intrinsic fluorescence, and A-loop conformation was ranked by limited tryptic cleavage. |
T9 |
1061-1222 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Together these ranked the openness of the active site cleft as R1136Q approximately D1132N > or = D1161A > Y1162F approximately K1085N > Q1208S > or = wild-type. |
T10 |
1223-1427 |
Sentence |
denotes |
These findings demonstrate the importance of specific invariant residues for intrasteric inhibition and show that diverse activation loop conformations can produce similar steady-state kinetic properties. |
T11 |
1428-1578 |
Sentence |
denotes |
This suggests a broader range of regulatory properties for the activation loop than expected from a simple off-versus-on switch for kinase activation. |
