Protein kinases are involved in a wide variety of signal transduction processes; their
deregulation has been implicated in a number of human diseases, including cancer and
disorders of the immune system. The recently determined structures of two protein kinases,
cAPK and CDK2, in complex with an inhibitor, staurosporine, provide a detailed account of
inhibitor–kinase interactions and inhibitor selectivity.
