Abstract

MAP kinases (MAPKs), which control mitogenic signal transduction in all eukaryotic organisms, are inactivated by dual specificity MAPK phosphatases (MKPs). MKP-3, a prototypical MKP, achieves substrate specificity through its N-terminal domain binding to the MAPK ERK2, resulting in the activation of its C-terminal phosphatase domain. The solution structure and biochemical analysis of the ERK2 binding (EB) domain of MKP-3 show that regions that are essential for ERK2 binding partly overlap with its sites that interact with the C-terminal catalytic domain, and that these interactions are functionally coupled to the active site residues of MKP-3. Our findings suggest a novel mechanism by which the EB domain binding to ERK2 is transduced to cause a conformational change of the C-terminal catalytic domain, resulting in the enzymatic activation of MKP-3.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In DUSPs/MKPs, the KIM is not a linear peptide but part of the structured MKBD domain and is much more constrained than that of MKKs or KIM-PTPs.

    “In DUSPs/MKPs, the KIM is not a linear peptide but instead part of the structured MKBD domain [35][36][37] and thus is much more constrained than that of e.g.MKKs or KIM-PTPs.”

  • There are larger structural differences in the MKBD from DUSP6, which also has the central 5-membered β-sheet but the surrounding α-helices and connecting loops adopt significantly different conformations.

  • The MKBDs of DUSP6/MKP3, DUSP10/MKP5, and DUSP16/MKP7 all adopt a common mixed α/β-fold that is highly similar to that of sulfurtransferases (rhodaneses) and the DUSP Cdc25A.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
