Talk:P38 mitogen-activated protein kinases

Untitled

I am part of a Developmental Biology Honors & Graduate Course at Saint Louis University, and I have a few suggestions for your article: Here is a link to an excellent review on the map kinase, p38, as well as activation of p38 that you may want to include in your page: http://www.nature.com/nsmb/journal/v4/n4/pdf/nsb0497-311.pdf One suggestion may be to go more in depth on inhibition of p38. Also, what are the activation sites, and how many? The link goes into greater detail on that. A picture of the crystal structure of this protein is one suggestion of displaying the activation sites neatly. I noted that the summary after the first heading is cut off by the charts. It might benefit to move that up before the chart so viewers can read the entire summary, and also be more pleasing to the eye.

There also has been much research on how axis specification in certain organisms such as the sea urchin and drosophila depend on p38, which I do not see included in this review. Here are links to a couple primary sources on that: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16319119 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10364162 Ayebeesung (talk) 15:35, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
