Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of a normal avian cell protein related to the avian sarcoma virus transforming gene product.

TL;DR: A protein from normal uninfected avian cells that is antigenically related to the pp60 src viral protein responsible for transformation by ASV is identified and characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phage display selection of ligand residues important for Src homology 3 domain binding specificity

TL;DR: Additional ligand residue preferences were identified that can increase the affinity of SH3 peptide ligands at least 20-fold compared with core peptides and indicate that residues that flank the core binding sequences shared by many SH3 domains are important determinants of SH 3 binding affinity and selectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adhesive ligand binding to integrin alpha IIb beta 3 stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of novel protein substrates before phosphorylation of pp125FAK.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that fibrinogen binding to alpha IIb beta 3 initiates a process of tyrosine phosphorylation that precedes platelet aggregation and theosphorylation of pp125FAK, which may depend on the oligomerization of integrin receptors and on the state of actin polymerization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of a novel integrin signaling pathway involving the kinase Syk and the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Vav1.

TL;DR: Syk and Vav1 regulate a unique integrin signaling pathway that differs from the FAK pathway in its proximity to the integrin itself, its localization to lamellipodia, and its activation, which is independent of actin polymerization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Requirements for Vav Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factors and Rho GTPases in FcγR- and Complement-Mediated Phagocytosis

TL;DR: Analysis of primary murine macrophages shows that constitutively active Rac is able to rescue actin polymerization and complement-mediated phagocytosis in Vav-deficient macrophage, suggesting that Rac is regulated by GEFs other than Vav downstream of the FcgammaR.
