The Hallmark of AGC Kinase Functional Divergence is Its C-terminal Tail, a Cis-acting Regulatory Module

An elegant dissection of how the C-terminal tail (C-tail) in AGC kinases serves as a cis-acting regulatory module, driving functional divergence from other kinase families. Through conserved interactions and structural specialization, the C-tail orchestrates key regulatory processes, acting as a unique hallmark of AGC kinases.

Sequence Determinants of the Conformational Properties of an Intrinsically Disordered Protein Prior to and Upon Multisite Phosphorylation

A groundbreaking exploration of how sequence patterning, especially proline and charge distributions, governs the conformational behavior of intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) even under multisite phosphorylation, with compensatory conformational changes maintaining overall dimensions.
