Journal ArticleDOI

A mammalian PAR-3-PAR-6 complex implicated in Cdc42/Rac1 and aPKC signalling and cell polarity.

TL;DR: It is shown that homologues of proteins necessary for asymmetric cell division in Caenorhabditis elegans associate with each other in mammalian cells and tissues and have a scaffolding function, coordinating the activities of several signalling proteins that are implicated in mammalian cell polarity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bidirectional signalling through the EPH-family receptor Nuk and its transmembrane ligands

TL;DR: It is shown that challenging cells that express the TM ligands Elk-L or Htk-L with the clustered ectodomain of Nuk induces phosphorylation of the ligands on tyrosine, a process that can be mimicked both in vitro and in vivo by an activated Src tyrosINE kinase.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Drosophila SH2-SH3 Adaptor Protein Implicated in Coupling the Sevenless Tyrosine Kinase to an Activator of Ras Guanine Nucleotide Exchange, Sos

TL;DR: Results suggest that drk binds autophosphorylated receptor tyrosine kinases with its SH2 domain and the Sos GNRP through its SH3 domains, thereby coupling receptor tyrose kinases to Ras activation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bcr-Abl oncoproteins bind directly to activators of the Ras signalling pathway.

TL;DR: Results suggest that autophosphorylation within the Bcr element of Bcr‐Abl creates a direct physical link to Grb2‐mSos1, and potentially to the Ras pathway, and thereby modifies the target specificity of the Abl tyrosine kinase.
