✦ Synopsis

Recent gene-targeting experiments have highlighted the importance of the intracellular protein tyrosine kinases Lyn, Syk, and Btk in BCR signal transduction and B cell development. In addition, the interactions of these kinases and their regulatory mechanisms have been reported. Activation loop phosphorylation of these kinases is critical for their participation in signal propagation. Several substrates have been identified for these kinases and this has led to elucidation of the mechanisms by which these kinases mediate the downstream signaling events that lead to cellular responses of B cells.

The binding of antigens to the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) results in the initiation of signaling cascades and the internalization of the antigens for processing and presentation. Recent studies indicate that antigen binding destabilizes the BCR as a mechanism to down-regulate B cell responses. Tw
