Intracellular signaling proteins are very often regulated by site-specific phosphorylation. For example, growth factor receptors in eukaryotic cells contain intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity and use inter- and intra-molecular interactions to recruit and orient potential protein substrates for phosp
Antigen-receptor signaling requires Src-family kinases to initiate tyrosine phosphorylation. CD45 dephosphorylates the inhibitory site in Src-family kinases before antigen-receptor engagement and thus serves to 'prime' the kinases. It has been unclear why CD45 does not also dephosphorylate 'activate
Cell proliferation in response to growth factors is mediated by specific high affinity receptors. Ligand-binding by receptors of the protein tyrosine kinase family results in the stimulation of several intracellular signal transduction pathways. Key signalling enzymes are recruited to the plasma mem
