The association of one of these kinases, p56lck, with the CD4 and CD8 cell-surface receptors in T lymphocytes has provided a model system through which the first function for a src-related tyrosine kinase has been defined. These initial observations in T lymphocytes have led investigators to explore the potential association of the src-related tyrosine kinases with other receptor complexes. Evidence that these kinases may be involved in mediating signaling events through such diverse cellular receptors as those found in B lymphocytes and basophils is currently being pursued.</p>","PeriodicalId":77504,"journal":{"name":"Cancer cells (Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y. : 1989)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12868161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
