The authors apologize for any inconvenience caused. ). The phosphorylation of Y1131, Y1135 and Y1136 stabilizes the activation loop far away from the active site (orange), which is now occupied by the ATP analogue (green) and the peptide substrate (magenta). When these three Tyr residues are dephosphorylated (PDB code 1IRK; Hubbard et al, 1994), the activation loop occupies the same location as the peptide substrate, inhibiting its kinase activity.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
