Journal ArticleDOI

Guanine-nucleotide-releasing factor hSos1 binds to Grb2 and links receptor tyrosine kinases to Ras signalling.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the Grbl/hSos1 complex couples activated EGF receptor to Ras signalling, and a synthetic 10-amino-acid peptide containing the sequence PPVPPR specifically blocks the interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

The function of GRB2 in linking the insulin receptor to ras signaling pathways

TL;DR: Insulin-induced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases [ERKs, also known as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases] is mediated by Ras and activation of the insulin receptor results in the interaction of GRB2-Sos with IRS-1 and Shc, thus linking the insulin receptors to Ras signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

A region in Shc distinct from the SH2 domain can bind tyrosine- phosphorylated growth factor receptors

TL;DR: A novel domain is defined in Shc that has the potential to interact with growth factor receptors and other tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein/uromucoid) is a phosphatidylinositol-linked membrane protein.

TL;DR: The results indicate that THP is a member of this class of lipid-linked membrane proteins and is released into the urine after the loss of its hydrophobic anchor, probably by the action of a phospholipase or protease.
