New findings from University of Helsinki describe advances in life science

Published in Proteomics Weekly, August 2nd, 2010

Researchers detail in 'Hydrophobic interaction between the SH2 domain and the kinase domain is required for the activation of Csk,' new data in life science. According to recent research from Helsinki, Finland, "The protein tyrosine kinase C-terminal Src kinase (Csk) is activated by the engagement of its Src homology (SH) 2 domain. However, the molecular mechanism required for this is not completely understood."

"The crystal structure of the active Csk indicates that Csk could be activated by contact between the SH2 domain and the beta3-alphaC loop in the N-terminal lobe of the kinase domain. To study the importance of this interaction for the SH2-domain-mediated...
