BRSK2 is activated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A through phosphorylation at Thr260
2006
Brain selective kinase 2 (BRSK2) has been identified as a member of AMPK related kinases. LKB1 can phosphorylate the Thr174 of BRSK2, increasing its activity >50-fold. In this study, we identified cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) as another upstream kinase of BRSK2, which can phosphorylate BRSK2 at Thr260. The association between these two proteins was confirmed by GST pull-down. Furthermore, our study indicated that the kinase activity of BRSK2 can be increased through phosphorylation by PKA.
