Modulation of the phagocyte protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) SHP-1 by the parasite Leishmania favors its survival and propagation within its mammalian host. In vivo, the absence of SHP-1 leads to virtually absent footpad swelling, accompanied by enhanced inducible nitric oxide synthase expression.
## Abstract The substrate specificity of catalytic domains and the activation of full length protein tyrosine phosphatases, SHPβ1 and SHPβ2 have been investigated using synthetic phosphotyrosyl peptides derived from SIPRΞ±1. We found that the catalytic domains of SHPβ1 and SHPβ2 exhibit different su
The protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 is predominantly expressed in hemopoietic cell lineages, where its function is relatively well defined. However, its expression profile also extends to certain epithelial cell types. Furthermore, the negative regulatory role of this enzyme in hemopoietic cell s
## Abstract Heregulin (HRG) has been implicated in the progression of breast cancer cells to a malignant phenotype, a process that involves changes in cell motility and adhesion. Here we demonstrate that HRG differentially regulates the siteβspecific phosphorylation of the focal adhesion components
CD5, a membrane-associated glycoprotein, has been shown to negatively regulate antigen receptor-mediated growth responses in peritoneal B lymphocytes, thymocytes and mature T cells. The CD5-expressing peritoneal B cells (B-1) that are normally unresponsive to B cell receptor (BCR)-mediated growth si
