“…Here, control of subcellular localization, enzymatic activity, and biological half-life can be envisioned as modes by which 14-3-3 PPI modulators could act, e.g., on transcription factors (YAP, c-Jun, MLF1, FOXOs), enzymes shuttling between cytoplasm and nucleus (Cdc25 phosphatases, HDACs), or kinases (B, C-Raf, LRRK2). In recent years, a growing number of crystal structures of 14-3-3 in complex with different binding partner motifs have been published, for example, the cystic fibrosis ion channel CFTR, 55 the small heat shock protein HSPB6, 56 phosducin, 57 and the Parkinson's disease-related kinase LRRK2. 58 As dimeric species that dock onto pairs of specific phosphorylated serine-or threonine-containing motifs, 14-3-3 proteins are endowed with special signaling, mechanical, and evolutionary properties.…”
