Recent evidence suggests that secretory vesicle formation from the TGN is regulated by cytosolic signaling pathways involving small GTP-binding proteins, heterotrimeric G proteins, inositol phospholipid metabolism, and protein serine/threonine phosphorylation. At the cell surface, protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation on tyrosine residues can rapidly modulate cytosolic signaling pathway...

SHP-1, an SH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase, has a crucial role in hematopoiesis. Here we report that SHP-1 is associated with two major tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in hematopoietic cells treated with the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, pervanadate. One of the proteins corresponds to leukocyte-associated Ig-like receptor-1 (LAIR-1), a recently cloned transmembrane protein. Molecul...

The interaction of the non-receptor tyrosine kinase, Src, with the cytoskeleton of adhesion sites was studied in nerve growth cones isolated from fetal rat brain. Of particular interest was the role of protein tyrosine phosphatases in the regulation of Src-cytoskeleton binding. Growth cones were found to contain a high level of protein tryrosine phosphatase activity, most of it membrane-associa...
