The subtractive hybridization was performed by adding 1.5 μl driver cDNA to each tube, one containing 1.5 μl of adaptor 1 and the other containing 1.5 μl adapter 2R-ligated tester cDNA (tester cDNA was approximately 30 times less concentrated than driver cDNA) in 1 μl 4X hybridization buffer.
Btk was shown to be required for normal phosphorylation of a novel adapter protein, named BCAP, which couples BCR-activated PTKs to PI 3-kinase activation [ 17].
Upon BCR stimulation, Btk is thought to be recruited to PLCγ2 via the adapter protein BLNK, as BLNK can associate with the SH2 domains of both PLCγ2 [ 31, 32] and Btk [ 33].
The phosphorylated beta-2 receptor enhances the binding of beta-arrestin, which not only uncouples the receptor from the signal transduction process but also serves as an adapter protein that mediates entry into the internalization pathway [ 5 ] , as well as serving as a platform for additional signaling pathways [ 6 ] . The mechanisms of beta-2 adrenergic receptor down-regulation appear to involve both an increase in the rate of degradation of the receptor as well as a decrease in the levels of beta receptor mRNA [ 7 ] . Down-regulation of the beta-2 receptor is, in part, due to trafficking of the beta-2 receptor to lysosomes via the clathrin-coated pit endosomal pathway [ 8 9 ] .
An anchored primer adapter was designed that contains a 5' T7 promoter and a 3' polyA (18 bps in length) stretch terminating in a single C, G, or T base.
