SHIP is a SH2 domain-containing inositol polyphosphatase that is selectively tyrosine phosphorylated and associated with the adapter protein Shc in B lymphocytes upon co-crosslinking surface immunoglobulin and Fc gamma RIIB1. We previously observed that this stimulation condition is associated with

β¦ Synopsis
Negative signaling in B cells is initiated by co-crosslinking of the antigen receptor and the Fcy receptor, resulting in cessation of B-cell signaling events and, in turn, inhibiting B-cell proliferation and antibody secretion. Here, a competitive role is proposed for SHIP in blocking the interaction of Shc with the Grb2-Sos complex of proteins that lead to Ras activation in B cells.

Several polypeptide growth factors stimulate breast cancer growth and may be involved in tumor progression. However, the relative importance of diverse growth factor signaling pathways in the development and maintenance of the neoplastic phenotype is largely unknown. The activation of such growth fa
Taxol, a natural product with significant anti-tumor activity, stabilizes microtubules and arrests cells in the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. It has been reported that taxol has additional effects in cells, including an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins and activation of MAP kinase. W
The survival of mature resting B cells in the periphery depends on signaling from the B-cell receptor (BCR) and the B-cell activating factor of the TNF family receptor (BAFF-R). Engagement of both receptors promotes NF-kB activity, which contributes to B-cell survival through different pathways. BCR
The activation of protein tyrosine kinase(s) (PTK) is a critical event required for the development of NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Here we demonstrate that the adaptor protein shc undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation during the generation of antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and natur
