A dynamic mechanism for allosteric activation of Aurora kinase A by activation loop phosphorylation
E. F. Ruff, J. M. Muretta, A. Thompson…·N. M. Levinson
This study shows that phosphorylation of Aurora A's activation loop activates the kinase without shifting the DFG-In state population, and that a DFG-Out subpopulation is important for optimized substrate binding kinetics.
