Figure Lengend Snippet: Tyrosine phosphorylation of PTK ZAP-70 and p72syk, adaptor protein LAT and p23-ζ induced by CD45 engagement is dependent on p56lck kinase activity. Jurkat T cells were preincubated or not with PP2 (10 or 100 µm) for 30 min, and were then stimulated with soluble (S) or crosslinked (XL) anti-CD45 mAbs 9.4 (20 µg/ml) (or 4B2, data not shown) for 15 min, or left unstimulated. Whole cell lysates were immunoprecipitated with specific anti-p72syk, anti-ZAP-70, anti-p56lck, anti-LAT and anti-CD3-ζ antibodies. (a) Following separation on 6·5–10% polyacrylamide gradient gels in SDS and transfer to PVDF membranes, blots were incubated with antiphosphotyrosine mAb and revealed by chemiluminescence. (b) Blots were stripped prior to incubation with antip72syk, anti-ZAP-70, anti-p56lck, anti-LAT and anti-CD3-ζ antibodies.
