we just posted our new work on #SRC #kinase led by the superb Prashant Jain 🤩 Inspired by nature, we discover that the length of the catalytic loop and the autophosphorylation site can be engineered to fine-tune downstream pathway activation. 🙏🏻 @oistedu.bsky.social

Minimal Perturbation of Activation Loop Dynamics Rewires Kinase Signaling
Enzymes are central to life, with their catalytic activity often shaped by the dynamic conformations of regulatory loops. In hub enzymes such as tyrosine kinases, the activation loop critically contro...
