Leukocyte cell surface enzymology: CD45 (LCA, T200) is a protein tyrosine phosphatase. 1989

E A Clark, and J A Ledbetter

During 1987, striking advances were made in defining the receptors and ligands for cell-to-cell adhesion interactions involving leukocytes. In 1988, two major leukocyte differentiation antigens, CD10 (cALLA) and CD45 (LCA, T200), were shown to be enzymes while two other markers, CD4 and CD8, were found to be associated with an enzyme. In this article, Ed Clark and Jeff Ledbetter discuss recent findings in the emerging area of leukocyte cell surface enzymology with emphasis on CD45, a membrane-associated protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase)2,3.

D006649	Histocompatibility Antigens	A group of antigens that includes both the major and minor histocompatibility antigens. The former are genetically determined by the major histocompatibility complex. They determine tissue type for transplantation and cause allograft rejections. The latter are systems of allelic alloantigens that can cause weak transplant rejection.

D000943	Antigens, Differentiation	Antigens expressed primarily on the membranes of living cells during sequential stages of maturation and differentiation. As immunologic markers they have high organ and tissue specificity and are useful as probes in studies of normal cell development as well as neoplastic transformation.

D017027	Protein Tyrosine Phosphatases	An enzyme group that specifically dephosphorylates phosphotyrosyl residues in selected proteins. Together with PROTEIN-TYROSINE KINASE, it regulates tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation in cellular signal transduction and may play a role in cell growth control and carcinogenesis.

D017493	Leukocyte Common Antigens	High-molecular weight glycoproteins uniquely expressed on the surface of LEUKOCYTES and their hemopoietic progenitors. They contain two FIBRONECTIN TYPE III DOMAINS and possess cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity, which plays a role in intracellular signaling from the CELL SURFACE RECEPTORS. Leukocyte common antigens occur as multiple isoforms that result from alternative mRNA splicing and differential usage of three exons.
