General

Protein kinasesare enzymes responsible for the phosphorylation of hydroxyl side-chains on proteins by catalysing the transfer of a phosphate from ATP. This phosphorylation produces a change in the function of the protein concerned. Phosphorylations take place on serine, threonine and tyrosine residues and hence the enzymes are termed serine/threonine (Ser/Thr)  or tyrosine kinases.

In AD, perturbations to the  balance of  kinase and phosphatase activities  (e.g. see Gong et al. 2000 ) may lead to the inappropriate hyperphosphorylation of  various proteins. For example, "Phosphorylated tau proteins accumulate early in neurons, even before formation of neurofibrillary tangles , suggesting that an imbalance between the activities of protein kinases and phosphatases acting on tau is an early phenomenon"  (from review article: Brion, 1988)

And see the 'Institut National de la Sante et de la Recherche Medical' website for detail on tau phosphorylation sites and their kinases.

Protein kinases implicated in AD
 
MAP kinases (mitogen-activated protein kinase; externally regulated kinase, [ERK1 and ERK2])
Cyclin-Dependent Kinase 5

Protein kinases involved in Tau Phosphorylation:

The consensus view in the literature suggests that the protein kinases most predominantly involved in AD-specific tau phosphorylation are cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5), glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3 beta) and the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAP kinases ; externally regulated kinase, [ERK1 and ERK2 ]).

All these are involved in cellular signal transduction pathways and appear to be physically-associated with microtubules and tangles ( Pelech, 1995). Some researchers, however, have suggested that the MAP kinases may have a lesser role in the specific AD-type tau phosphorylation (Flaherty et al., 2000; Yamaguchi et al., 1996 ).
