- _7 value "GTP-bound Ras interacts directly with Raf and mobilizes the inactive protein from the cytoplasm (Figs 1 and 2). Once the Ras-Raf complex is translocated to the cell membrane, Ras activates the serine/threonine kinase function of Raf through an association between its Ras-binding domain (RBD) in the amino-terminal regulatory region and Ras-GTP." provenance.
- _7 value "Raf is also activated by Ras-independent activators, including the soluble non-RTK Src and Janus kinase 1, which are involved in cytokine signaling.86 Other Ras-independent activators of Raf include interferon beta, protein kinase C (PKC) alpha, antiapoptotic proteins (eg, Bcl-2), scaffolding proteins (eg, ceramide-activated protein kinase), ultraviolet light, ionizing radiation, retinoids, erythropoietin, and dimerization between Raf isoforms 86-94 (Fig 3)." provenance.

- _7 value "Additional support for the diverse functionality of Raf family members is provided by the disparate responses of B-Raf and C-Raf to identical stimuli, as well as the distinct messages that each isoform relays downstream to Rap1, which is a small GTPase that functions as both an activator and repressor of Raf.115 Rap1-mediated stimulation of B-Raf by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphorylates ERK, whereas stimulation of C-Raf inhibits ERK phosphorylation.115" provenance.
- _7 value "With regard to differences in signaling between the Raf isoforms, A-Raf is a weaker activator of MEK than B-Raf or C-Raf. Furthermore, A-Raf can activate MEK1 only, whereas C-Raf activates both MEK1 and MEK2.123-125" provenance.
- _6 value "C-Raf exists in the cytoplasm as a 300- to 500-kd protein complex. The complex consists of C-Raf, heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), and the dimeric protein cofactor 14-3-3. 14-3-3 binds to two specific phosphoserine residues of C-Raf, which masks its kinase domain and inactivates the protein. The binding of Ras to C-Raf displaces the 14-3-3 dimer, rendering C-Raf accessible to dephosphorylation by protein phosphatase 2A.126" provenance.
- _7 value "The effector domain of GTP-bound Ras binds to C-Raf through the RBD and CRD in the CR1. Although binding to both sites is required for Raf activation, the most critical interaction is between Ras-GTP and the RBD.127 All Ras isoforms are capable of interacting with Raf, but K-Ras is the most potent activator, whereas N-Ras is much more efficient than H-Ras.128 The interaction between Ras and C-Raf alone is insufficient to activate C-Raf, but it serves to translocate C-Raf to the cell membrane where it can be activated." provenance.
- _8 value "The activation of B-Raf by Ras has been less well studied; however, the interacting amino acids in the Ras-Raf interface are identical for B-Raf and C-Raf.129,130 The association of Ras with B-Raf also translocates B-Raf to the cell membrane where it is activated.124 Interestingly, a membrane-free complex of B-Raf and 14-3-3 can be activated in vitro by recombinant Ras. This is in stark contrast to A-Raf and C-Raf, which must undergo a series of phosphorylation reactions on serine and tyrosine residues in the cell membrane and cannot be activated by Ras alone.124,130 Of the Raf isoforms, B-Raf is activated first, and on stimulation by Ras, it heterodimerizes with C-Raf, the significance of which is not known.94" provenance.
- _7 value "Both B-Raf and C-Raf can bind to other small GTPases, most notably Rap1.115,131,132 The effector domains of Rap1 and Ras are nearly identical, but activation of these proteins produces vastly different downstream effects. Furthermore, Rap1 mediates distinct effects after binding to various Raf isoforms. The B-Raf–Rap1 complex activates B-Raf, whereas the C-Raf–Rap1 interaction does not activate C-Raf and, in fact, may be inhibitory.115,132,133 This occurs because Rap1 binds to the CRD of C-Raf with higher affinity than Ras and excludes Ras from binding." provenance.

- _6 value "Phosphorylation. Raf is principally activated by phosphorylation of specific amino acid residues as shown for each isoform in Figure 4. From an evolutionary standpoint, the Raf activation sites are highly conserved from yeast to humans. Several amino acids in Raf, particularly serine (S) 259 and S621, which bind 14-3-3 and maintain C-Raf in a closed auto-inhibited conformation, are phosphorylated in the basal state.137 On stimulation, Ras-GTP displaces 14-3-3 from S259, and C-Raf is translocated to the cell membrane, where it can be dephosphorylated at S259 by protein phosphatase 2A or other phosphatases.126 S259 also represents the site of inhibitory phosphorylation by PKB/Akt, PKA, and serum glucocorticoid-inducible kinase.121,138,139 Phosphorylation at S621 seems to have greater significance because mutations at this site inactivate Raf's kinase activity. Hence, a balance of phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is required to prime Raf in the basal state before stimulation by Ras or mitogens.137" provenance.

Because Flt-1 and the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase were associated when overexpressed in yeast cells (54), we next determined whether this interaction is biologically significant in MM cells. Flt-1 was immunoprecipitated from VEGF treated and non-treated MM.1S cells followed by immunoblotting with anti-p85 Ab. As illustrated in Fig.5a, p85 is constitutively associated with Flt-1, suggesting that PI 3-kinase participates in Flt-1-mediated VEGF signal transduction." provenance.
- _5 value "We have shown recently that Flt-1 VEGFR is expressed in the human MM cell line and patient MM cells and is tyrosine-phosphorylated upon VEGF stimulation (12). Because Flt-1 and the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase were associated when overexpressed in yeast cells (54), we next determined whether this interaction is biologically significant in MM cells. Flt-1 was immunoprecipitated from VEGF treated and non-treated MM.1S cells followed by immunoblotting with anti-p85 Ab. As illustrated in Fig.5a, p85 is constitutively associated with Flt-1, suggesting that PI 3-kinase participates in Flt-1-mediated VEGF signal transduction." provenance.
- _5 value "Here, we show that repetitive slow fiber type electrical stimulation, but not fast fiber type stimulation, caused HDAC4-GFP, but not HDAC5-GFP, to translocate from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in cultured adult skeletal muscle fibers. HDAC4-GFP translocation was blocked by calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) inhibitor KN-62." provenance.

- _5 value "Slow fiber type stimulation increased MEF2 transcriptional activity, nuclear Ca2+ concentration, and nuclear levels of activated CaMKII, but not total nuclear CaMKII or CaM-YFP. Thus, calcium transients for slow, but not fast, fiber stimulation patterns appear to provide sufficient Ca2+-dependent activation of nuclear CaMKII to result in net nuclear efflux of HDAC4." provenance.
- _3 value "Slow fiber type stimulation increased MEF2 transcriptional activity, nuclear Ca2+ concentration, and nuclear levels of activated CaMKII, but not total nuclear CaMKII or CaM-YFP. Thus, calcium transients for slow, but not fast, fiber stimulation patterns appear to provide sufficient Ca2+-dependent activation of nuclear CaMKII to result in net nuclear efflux of HDAC4." provenance.
- _5 value "1 h of 10-Hz train stimulation significantly increased (P < 0.01) the mean nuclear stain of activated CaMKII compared with unstimulated fibers, and KN-62 (5 μM) blocked the increase in activated CaMKII staining after stimulation (Fig. 3 A). In parallel experiments, in which the fibers were stained with antibody directed against total CaMKII, there was no difference in mean nuclear antibody stain between stimulated and unstimulated fibers (P > 0.05; Fig. 3 A). These results are consistent with activation of nuclear CaMKII by fiber electrical stimulation without any appreciable translocation of CaMKII from the cytoplasm to the nucleus." provenance.
- _5 value "Over a 60-min period of treatment with 1 μM calyculin A (a PP1 and PP2A phosphatase inhibitor that does not affect PP2B; Ishihara et al., 1989), the nuclear HDAC4-GFP fluorescence decreased linearly with a mean net export rate of -0.71 ± 0.07%/min (Fig. 9 A, 13 nuclei from 5 fibers)." provenance.
- _5 value "Interestingly, calyculin A also caused a similar rate of efflux of HDAC5-GFP (-0.62 ± 0.05, nine nuclei from six fibers) from nuclei as observed for HDAC4, establishing the ability of HDAC5 to move out of the nucleus even though it did not translocate in response to electrical stimulation." provenance.
- _5 value "LPS + IFNγ caused an increase in monolayer permeability, induction of iNOS and NADPH oxidase type 1 (Nox1) proteins, formation of superoxide, nitric oxide and 3-nitrotyrosine, and increase in PP2A activity in endothelial cells. These effects of LPS + IFNγ were diminished by tripterine (50-200 nM)." provenance.
