Example sentences for: lyn
How can you use “lyn” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Thus, in a recent report ionotropic AMPA glutamate receptors were shown to " ...function not only as ion channels but also as cell-surface transducers by means of their interaction with the Src-family non-receptor protein kinase Lyn.
Moreover, the relatively weak phosphorylation of cellular proteins induced by Btk:ER does not suggest that Lyn and/or Syk are becoming activated (Fig 1C).
In contrast, BCR-mediated activation of Lyn kinase was largely maintained [ 37 38 ] . The Syk-dependent signaling pathway appears to be facilitated by the adaptor molecule BLNK (also known as SLP-65 and BASH) [ 39 40 41 ] . Syk can induce the phosphorylation of BLNK in co-transfection experiments [ 42 ] , which may be important for the recruitment of other Syk substrates like PLCγ2 through a scaffolding function [ 42 ] . BLNK function is necessary for signal transduction since no Ca 2+flux or PLCγ2 phosphorylation is observed in response to BCR engagement in BLNK-deficient DT40 cells [ 43 ] .
Btk is thought to be activated upon BCR cross-linking by a two-step mechanism involving phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase and the Src family PTK Lyn (reviewed in references [ 4, 5, 6]).
This is consistent with the idea that Lyn and Syk are upstream of Btk activation [ 28].
