Mechanisms of apoptosis sensitivity and resistance to the BH3 mimetic ABT-737 in acute myeloid leukemia.
BCL-2 proteins are critical for cell survival and are overexpressed in many tumors. ABT-737 is a small-molecule BH3 mimetic that exhibits single-agent activity against lymphoma and small-cell lung… Expand

Novel Role for JNK as a Stress-activated Bcl2 Kinase*
Interleukin (IL)-3-induced Bcl2 phosphorylation at Ser70 may be required for its full and potent antiapoptotic activity. However, in the absence of IL-3, increased expression of Bcl2 can also prolong… Expand

Nicotine Inactivation of the Proapoptotic Function of Bax through Phosphorylation*
Nicotine-induced cell survival is associated with chemoresistance of human lung cancer cells, but our understanding of the intracellular mechanism(s) is fragmentary. Bax is a major proapoptotic… Expand

Survival function of ERK1/2 as IL-3-activated, staurosporine-resistant Bcl2 kinases.
Bcl2 phosphorylation at Ser-70 may be required for the full and potent suppression of apoptosis in IL-3-dependent myeloid cells and can result from agonist activation of mitochondrial protein kinase… Expand

Phosphorylation by aurora B converts MgcRacGAP to a RhoGAP during cytokinesis.
Cell division is finely controlled by various molecules including small G proteins and kinases/phosphatases. Among these, Aurora B, RhoA, and the GAP MgcRacGAP have been implicated in cytokinesis,… Expand

SAMHD1 Promotes DNA End Resection to Facilitate DNA Repair by Homologous Recombination.
DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination (HR) is initiated by CtIP/MRN-mediated DNA end resection to maintain genome integrity. SAMHD1 is a dNTP triphosphohydrolase, which… Expand

A Functional Role for Nicotine in Bcl2 Phosphorylation and Suppression of Apoptosis*
Nicotine is not only a major component in tobacco but is also a survival agonist that inhibits apoptosis induced by diverse stimuli including chemotherapeutic drugs. However, the intracellular… Expand

Mono- and multisite phosphorylation enhances Bcl2's antiapoptotic function and inhibition of cell cycle entry functions
Bcl2 functions to suppress apoptosis and retard cell cycle entry. Single-site phosphorylation at serine 70 (S70) is required for Bcl2's antiapoptotic function, and multisite phosphorylation at… Expand

Bcl2's Flexible Loop Domain Regulates p53 Binding and Survival
ABSTRACT p53 not only functions as a transcription factor but also has a direct, apoptogenic role at the mitochondria. We have discovered that DNA damage-induced p53-Bcl2 binding is associated with… Expand
