May 31, 2013 · The role of Grb2 was confirmed using a Pyk2 Y881F mutant, which blocked Grb2 recruitment to SHPS-1. Cells expressing this mutant had impaired Nox4 recruitment to SHPS-1. IGF-I-stimulated downstream signaling and biological actions were also significantly impaired in Nox4 Y491F-overexpressing cells.

SIRPα is an inhibitory receptor present on myeloid cells that interacts with a widely distributed membrane protein CD47. The activating member SIRPβ, despite extensive sequence similarity to SIRPα in the extracellular region, shows negligible binding to CD47.

Grb2 is best known for its ability to link the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase to the activation of Ras and its downstream kinases, ERK1,2. Grb2 is composed of an SH2 domain flanked on each side by an SH3 domain .

Growth-factor-receptor-binding protein 2 (GRB2) is a non-enzymatic adaptor protein that plays a pivotal role in precisely regulated signaling cascades from cell surface receptors to cellular responses, including signaling transduction and gene expression.

Apr 1, 2021 · Grb2 forms a bidentate interaction with both the N-terminal SH2 and the catalytic domains of Shp2, releasing the phosphatase from its auto-inhibited conformation. Grb2 typically exists as a...

Nov 6, 2012 · Grb2 is conventionally known for playing positive roles in RTK signaling. The discovery of a negative regulatory role for Grb2 reveals that this adaptor acts as a double-edged sword in the regulation of RTK signaling.

GRB2, or Growth Factor Receptor-Bound Protein 2, is a pivotal adaptor protein in intracellular signal transduction pathways, particularly within receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling cascades. Its crystal structure reveals a modular architecture ...

Mar 2, 2023 · These studies show that a novel dimeric GRB2 conformation with domain-swapping between SH2 domains and monomer/dimer transitions are critical for GRB2 to facilitate early signaling complexes...

The growth factor receptor-bound protein-2 (GRB2) is essential for multiple cellular functions. Inhibition of GRB2 function impairs developmental processes in various organisms and blocks transformation and proliferation of various cell types. GRB2 is …

Jul 22, 2010 · Previously, we showed that signal regulatory protein alpha1 (SIRPalpha1) receptors interact with SHP-2 to inhibit wild-type (wt) EGFR-mediated tumor migration, survival and cell transformation. However, the effects of SIRPalpha1 inhibitory receptors on EGFRvIII-mediated phenotypes are unclear.
