Abstract

p56lck, a lymphocyte-specific tyrosine protein kinase, binds to the cytoplasmic tails of the T-cell surface molecules CD4 and CD8. Cross-linking of CD4 expressed on the surface of murine thymocytes, splenocytes, and CD4+ T-cell lines induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p56lck dramatically. Cross-linking of CD8 stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of p56lck strongly in murine L3 and GA4 cells, slightly in splenocytes, but not detectably in thymocytes. Differing effects of cross-linking on in vitro tyrosine kinase activity of p56lck were observed. An increase in the in vitro kinase activity of p56lck, when assayed with [Val5]-angiotensin II as an exogenous substrate, was found to accompany cross-linking of CD4 in three cell lines. No stimulation of the in vitro kinase activity, however, was observed after cross-linking of CD8 in L3 cells. The phosphorylation of p56lck at Tyr-394, the autophosphorylation site, was stimulated by cross-linking in all cell lines examined. Tyr-394 was the predominant site of increased tyrosine phosphorylation in two leukemic cell lines. In the other two cell lines, the phosphorylation of both Tyr-394 and an inhibitory site, Tyr-505, was found to increase. In contrast to cross-linking with antibodies, n...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
