pubmed:abstractText
The kinases of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascades transmit signals through sequential phosphorylation and activation of the enzymes. However, recent evidence indicates that protein-protein interactions between the kinases themselves or with substrates or other components are also a critical means of regulation. Whitmarsh and Davis summarize these findings with emphasis on new evidence from yeast that, when phosphorylated, a MAP kinase kinase actually switches from a negative regulator that binds to and inhibits its target MAP kinase to a positive regulator of that same enzyme.
