Abstract excerpt
pp60v-src is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase that can transform both chicken and rodent fibroblasts. The src homology 2 (SH2) domain of this protein serves a critical role in the regulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity. The host range proteins pp60v-src-L, which contains a deletion of a highly conserved residue (Phe-172) in the SH2 domain, and pp60v-src-PPP, which contains a change from a Leu to a...
