BTK as a Mediator of Radiation-Induced Apoptosis in DT-40 Lymphoma B Cells
23 Aug 1996
Abstract excerpt
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) is a member of the SRC-related TEC family of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). DT-40 lymphoma B cells, rendered BTK-deficient through targeted disruption of the btk gene by homologous recombination knockout, did not undergo radiation-induced apoptosis, but cells with disrupted lyn or syk genes did. Introduction of the wild-type, or a SRC homology 2 domain or a plecstrin homology...
