Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia and thanks for you contributions to articles such as G-protein coupled receptor kinases. I just learned that G-Protein coupled receptor kinase 5 has been linked to regulation of core body temperature. Do you know anything about interactions between G-Protein coupled receptor kinases and AKT? --JWSchmidt 02:48, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Hello, thanks for noticing me. I'm afraid I don't know anything about those interactions off the top of my head, except that I do seem to recall that they exist. Sorry I can't be of more help. Also, I'm not sure if it's customary to reply to talkpage comments on one's own page or on the commenter's page, so could you let me know if I'm doing this the wrong way? Thanks Johnalrd 07:09, 23 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Some people reply right where a comment is left. Other people go to the talk page of the person who left the comment. "We found that Akt physically interacts with G-protein-coupled receptor kinase-2" . --JWSchmidt 13:17, 23 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the link to the paper. It was definitely worth reading.  I've actually been interested in Akt for a while now because it phosphorylates a large number of the binding partners of the 14-3-3 protein I'm studying.  So I'm glad to have learned more about this.  Once again, thanks for welcoming me, and I look forward to working with you on Mol Cell Bio Wikipedia articles in the future.

 * I previously made a cartoon for a 14-3-3 protein in a diagram for the C-Raf article. I just decided that I should upload an actual structure for the 14-3-3 protein. --JWSchmidt 17:05, 23 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Ah, I see, that looks a lot better now. I'm planning to contribute some more information to the 14-3-3 article at some point, but at the moment it seems like it's in pretty good shape compared to so many of the other proteins.  Actually the fact that Wikipedia even had an article on 14-3-3 proteins is one of the things that made me want to contribute.  That's why for now at least, I think I'm going to focus on creating articles for neglected proteins.  Johnalrd 17:33, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

One more vote for the coordinator of the Molecular and Cellular Biology Wikiproject
Since two of the three editors nominated for Coordinator of the MCB Wikiproject declined their nominations, one more vote has been posted: should the remaining nominee, ClockworkSoul, be named as the coordinator, or should nominations be reopened? Every opinion counts, so please vote! – ClockworkSoul 17:51, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
