Growth factors activate phospholipases, causing the generation of diverse lipid metabolites with second messenger function. Among them, the phosphatidylcholine-preferring phospholipase D (PLD) has attracted great interest, since in addition to the transient activation by growth factors stimulation,
In this study, we investigated the activation of a new member of the focal adhesion kinase family of tyrosine kinases, the proline-rich tyrosine kinase, or PYK2, in platelets. We show that PYK2 is tyrosine phosphorylated and its activity is increased during early stages of platelet aggregation. This
