| Abstract | T lymphocytes express a tyrosine protein kinase (TPK; protein-tyrosine kinase; ATP:protein-tyrosine O-phosphotransferase, EC 2.7.1.112), pp56lck that is encoded by the lck protooncogene. This TPK was recently found to be associated with the intracellular domain of the T-cell surface glycoproteins, CD4 and CD8, suggesting that it plays an important role in T-cell development and activation. We have studied the regulation of pp56lck and found that this kinase can be rapidly activated by an endogenous mechanism present in T-lymphocyte membranes. This activation was sensitive to sodium orthovanadate and O-phosphotyrosine, consistent with the involvement of a phosphotyrosine phosphatase (PTPase; protein-tyrosine-phosphatase; protein-tyrosine-phosphate phosphohydrolase, EC 3.1.3.48) in pp56lck activation. Based on a recent report demonstrating that CD45, the leukocyte common antigen, is a membrane-bound PTPase, we analyzed its role in pp56lck activation. CD45 was found to be the major (greater than 90%) PTPase in membranes of the murine T-lymphoma line BW5147. Moreover, activation of pp56lck was undetectable in a mutant BW5147 line lacking CD45 expression (and the associated PTPase activity). In contrast, activation of pp56lck was readily detected in the wild-type lymphoma line. More important, when immunoprecipitated CD45 was added to pp56lck, the TPK activity of the latter increased greater than 2-fold within minutes. This effect of CD45 was completely blocked by sodium orthovanadate. These findings indicate an important role for the CD45 PTPase in pp56lck activation. This role could be mediated by direct dephosphorylation of a regulatory tyrosine residue in pp56lck. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
