Abstract
Diabetes-related neuropathy is a debilitating condition that may be averted if it can be detected early. One possible way this can be achieved at low cost is to utilise peptides to detect C-peptide, a biomarker of diabetic neuropathy. This depends on peptide-peptide co-assembly, which is currently in a nascent stage of intense study. Instead, we propose a bead-based triple-overlay combinatorial strategy that can preserve inter-residue information during the screening process for a suitable complementary peptide to co-assemble with C-peptide. The screening process commenced with a pentapeptide general library, which revealed histidine to be an essential residue. Further screening with seven tetrapeptide focused libraries led to a table of self-consistent peptide sequences that included tryptophan and lysine at high frequencies. Three complementary nonapeptides (9mer com-peptides), wpkkhfwgq (Trp-D), kwkkhfwgq (Lys-D), and KWKKHFWGQ (Lys-L) (as a negative control) were picked from this table for co-assembly studies with C-peptide. Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies were utilized to study inter-peptide interactions and changes in secondary structures respectively. ATR-FTIR studies showed that there is indeed inter-peptide interaction between C-peptide and the tryptophan residues of the 9mer com-peptides. CD studies of unaggregated and colloidal C-peptide with the 9mer com-peptides suggest that the extent of co-assembly of C-peptide with Trp-D is greatest, followed by Lys-D and Lys-L. These results are promising and indicate that the presented strategy is viable for designing and evaluating longer complementary peptides, as well as complementary peptides for co-assembly with other polypeptides of interest and importance. We discuss the possibility of designing complementary peptides to inhibit toxic amyloidosis with this approach.

Abstract
The bifunctional undecaprenol kinase/phosphatase (UdpK) is a small, prokaryotic, integral membrane kinase, homologous with Escherichia coli diacylglycerol kinase and expressed by the dgkA gene. In Gram-positive bacteria, UdpK is involved in the homeostasis of the bacterial undecaprenoid pool, where it converts undecaprenol to undecaprenyl phosphate (C55P) and also catalyses the reverse process. C55P is the universal lipid carrier and critical to numerous glycopolymer and glycoprotein biosynthetic pathways in bacteria. DgkA gene expression has been linked to facilitating bacterial growth and survival in response to environmental stressors, as well being implicated as a resistance mechanism to the topical antibiotic bacitracin, by providing an additional route to C55P. Therefore, identification of UdpK inhibitors could lead to novel antibiotic treatments. A combination of homology modelling and mutagenesis experiments on UdpK have been used to identify residues that may be involved in kinase/phosphatase activity. In this review, we will summarise recent work on the mechanism and substrate specificity of UdpK.

Abstract
Outer kinetochore assembly enables chromosome attachment to microtubules and spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) signaling in mitosis. Aurora B kinase controls kinetochore assembly by phosphorylating the Mis12 complex (Mis12C) subunit Dsn1. Current models propose Dsn1 phosphorylation relieves autoinhibition, allowing Mis12C binding to inner kinetochore component CENP-C. Using Xenopus laevis egg extracts and biochemical reconstitution, we found that autoinhibition of the Mis12C by Dsn1 impedes its phosphorylation by Aurora B. Our data indicate that the INCENP central region increases Dsn1 phosphorylation by enriching Aurora B at inner kinetochores, close to CENP-C. Furthermore, centromere-bound CENP-C does not exchange in mitosis, and CENP-C binding to the Mis12C dramatically increases Dsn1 phosphorylation by Aurora B. We propose that the coincidence of Aurora B and CENP-C at inner kinetochores ensures the fidelity of kinetochore assembly. We also found that the central region is required for the SAC beyond its role in kinetochore assembly, suggesting that kinetochore enrichment of Aurora B promotes the phosphorylation of other kinetochore substrates.

Abstract
We propose that the time course of an enzyme reaction following the Michaelis-Menten reaction mechanism can be conveniently described by a newly derived algebraic equation, which includes the Lambert Omega function. Following Northrop's ideas [Anal. Biochem.321, 457-461, 1983], the integrated rate equation contains the Michaelis constant (KM) and the specificity number (kS≡kcat/KM) as adjustable parameters, but not the turnover number kcat. A modification of the usual global-fit approach involves a combinatorial treatment of nominal substrate concentrations being treated as fixed or alternately optimized model parameters. The newly proposed method is compared with the standard approach based on the "initial linear region" of the reaction progress curves, followed by nonlinear fit of initial rates to the hyperbolic Michaelis-Menten equation. A representative set of three chelation-enhanced fluorescence EGFR kinase substrates is used for experimental illustration. In one case, both data analysis methods (linear and nonlinear) produced identical results. However, in another test case, the standard method incorrectly reported a finite (50-70 μM) KM value, whereas the more rigorous global nonlinear fit shows that the KM is immeasurably high.

Abstract
Aurora B kinase, a key regulator of cell division, localizes to specific cellular locations, but the regulatory mechanisms responsible for phosphorylation of substrates located remotely from kinase enrichment sites are unclear. Here, we provide evidence that this activity at a distance depends on both sites of high kinase concentration and the bistability of a coupled kinase-phosphatase system. We reconstitute this bistable behavior and hysteresis using purified components to reveal co-existence of distinct high and low Aurora B activity states, sustained by a two-component kinase autoactivation mechanism. Furthermore, we demonstrate these non-linear regimes in live cells using a FRET-based phosphorylation sensor, and provide a mechanistic theoretical model for spatial regulation of Aurora B phosphorylation. We propose that bistability of an Aurora B-phosphatase system underlies formation of spatial phosphorylation patterns, which are generated and spread from sites of kinase autoactivation, thereby regulating cell division.

Abstract
Probing the dynamic activities of protein kinases in real-time in living cells constitutes a major challenge that requires specific and sensitive tools tailored to meet the particular demands associated with cellular imaging. The development of genetically-encoded and synthetic fluorescent biosensors has provided means of monitoring protein kinase activities in a non-invasive fashion in their native cellular environment with high spatial and temporal resolution. Here, we review existing technologies to probe different dynamic features of protein kinases and discuss limitations where new developments are required to implement more performant tools, in particular with respect to infrared and near-infrared fluorescent probes and strategies which enable improved signal-to-noise ratio and controlled activation of probes.

Abstract
Defining perturbations in protein kinase activity within biological samples can provide insight into disease mechanisms as well as potential targets for drug development. In this article, we present a method that utilizes a phosphorylation-sensitive amino acid, termed CSox, to afford kinase-selective biosensors capable of reporting on enzymatic activity directly in biological samples. These sensors produce an increase in fluorescence in response to phosphorylation of an amino acid residue adjacent to CSox. Probes can be designed for either serine/threonine or tyrosine kinases, and analysis can be performed using standard fluorescence equipment. The procedures provided herein represent our optimized protocols for the design, validation, and application of CSox-based protein kinase activity sensors.

Abstract
Accurate and quantitative methods for measuring the dynamic fluctuations of protein kinase activities are critically needed as diagnostic tools and for the evaluation of kinase-targeted inhibitors, which represent a major therapeutic development area in the treatment of cancer and other diseases. In particular, rapid and economical methods that utilize simple instrumentation and provide quantitative data in a high throughput format will have the most impact on basic research in systems biology and medicine. There are over 500 protein kinases in the human kinome. Among these, the mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinases are recognized to be central players in key cellular signaling events and are associated with essential processes including growth, proliferation, differentiation, migration, and apoptosis. The major challenge with MAP kinase sensor development is achieving high selectivity since these kinases rely acutely on secondary interactions distal to the phosphorylation site to impart substrate specificity. Herein we describe the development and application of selective sensors for three MAP kinase subfamilies, ERK1/2, p38α/β, and JNK1/2/3. The new sensors are based on a modular design, which includes a sensing element that exploits a sulfonamido-oxine (Sox) fluorophore for reporting phosphorylation, a recognition and specificity element based on reported docking domain motifs and a variable linker, which can be engineered to optimize the intermodule distance and relative orientation. Following rigorous validation, the capabilities of the new sensors are exemplified through the quantitative analysis of the target MAP kinases in breast cancer progression in a cell culture model, which reveals a strong correlation between p38α/β activity and increased tumorgenicity.

Abstract
The study of protein kinases has become a matter of great importance in the development of new drugs for the treatment of diseases, including cancer and inflammation. Substrate screening is the first step in the fundamental investigation of protein kinases and the development of inhibitors for use in drug discovery. Towards this goal, various studies have been reported regarding the development of phospho-peptide detection methods and the screening of phosphorylated peptide sites by protein kinases. This review introduces the detection methods for phosphorylation events using the reagents with (γ(32)P)ATP, ligand-linked ATP, phospho-peptide-specific antibodies and metal chelating compounds. Chemical modification methods using β-elimination for the detection of phospho-Ser/Thr peptides are introduced as well. In addition, the implementations of combinatorial peptide libraries for screening peptide substrates of protein kinases are discussed. The phage display approach has been suggested as an alternative method of using synthetic peptides for screening the substrate specificities of protein kinase. However, a solid phase assay using a peptide library-bound polymer resin or a peptide-arrayed glass chip is preferred for high throughput screening (HTS).

Abstract
Recent efforts have identified the p38α Ser/Thr kinase as a potential target for the treatment of inflammatory diseases as well as non-small cell lung carcinoma. Despite the significance of p38α, no direct activity probe compatible with cell lysate analysis exists. Instead, proxies for kinase activation, such as phosphospecific antibodies, which do not distinguish between p38 isoforms, are often used. Our laboratory has recently developed a sulfonamido-oxine (Sox) fluorophore that undergoes a significant increase in fluorescence in response to phosphorylation at a proximal residue, allowing for real-time activity measurements. Herein we report the rational design of a p38α-selective chemosensor using this approach. We have validated the selectivity of this sensor using specific inhibitors and immunodepletions and show that p38α activity can be monitored in crude lysates from a variety of cell lines, allowing for the potential use of this sensor in both clinical and basic science research applications.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is a ubiquitous post-translational modification, and protein kinases, the enzymes that catalyze the phosphoryl transfer, are involved in nearly every aspect of normal, as well as aberrant, cell function. Here we describe the synthesis of novel, red-shifted 8-hydroxyquinoline-based fluorophores and their incorporation into peptidyl kinase activity reporters. Replacement of the sulfonamide group of the sulfonamido-oxine (1, Sox) chromophore, which has been previously used in kinase sensing, by a 1,4-substituted triazole moiety prepared via click chemistry resulted in a significant bathochromic shift in the fluorescence excitation (15 nm) and emission (40 nm) maxima for the Mg(2+) chelate. Furthermore, when a click derivative was incorporated into a chemosensor for MK2, the kinase accepted the new substrate as efficiently as the previously reported Sox-based sensor. Taken together, these results extend the utility range of kinase sensors that are based on chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF).
