The Conformational Plasticity of Protein Kinases

Notes on 2002 Cell review discussing conformational plasticity of protein kinases, highlighting key structural elements, activation mechanisms, and pseudosubstrate regulation. Includes insights on αC helix, activation loop, and therapeutic implications (e.g., Gleevec binding).

Discovery of Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinase (CDPK) as a Calmodulin-like Kinase Family

A 1991 Science paper reporting the discovery of a soybean CDPK as a novel class of calcium-dependent kinases, providing structural and evolutionary insights that shaped the understanding of CDPKs as CaM-like autonomous calcium sensors.
