Abstract excerpt
Signal transduction leading to calcium release in echinoderm eggs at fertilization requires phospholipase Cgamma-mediated production of inositol trisphosphate (IP(3)), indicating that a tyrosine kinase is a likely upstream regulator. Because previous work has shown a fertilization-dependent association between the Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of phospholipase Cgamma and a Src family kinase, we examined whether a...
