A Ca(2+)-dependent protein kinase phosphorylates phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in maize.

abstract：:Tau phosphorylation plays a crucial role in microtubule stabilization and in Alzheimer's disease. To characterize the molecular mechanisms of tau binding on microtubules, we synthesized the peptide R1 (QTAPVPMPDLKNVKSKIGSTENLKHQPGGGKVQI), reproducing the first tau microtubule binding motif. We thermodynamically charac...
