Posttranslational Modification | Comment | Organism |

phosphoprotein | the amino acid sequence of 5-LO contains several protein kinase motifs, e.g. at Ser271 and Ser663, 5-LO is phosphorylated in vitro by the protein kinases p38 MAPK-regulated MAPKAPK-2/3, ERK1/2, CaMKII and PKA. Conditions that activate MAPKAPKs and ERKs (e.g. cell stress, and phorbol esters) induce nuclear translocation of 5-LO and enhance product formation in intact cells, and this process is susceptible to kinase inhibitors. Phosphorylation on Ser523 by PKA directly suppresses 5-LO catalysis both in vitro and in the cell, and prevents nuclear localization of 5-LO by inhibiting the nuclear import function of a nuclear import sequence close to the kinase motif | Homo sapiens |
