ZAP-70 is a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) required for T-cell development and T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) function. ZAP-70 is associated with the phosphorylated antigen receptor and undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation following receptor activation. We demonstrate here that tyrosine phosphorylation of ZAP-70 results in an increase in its catalytic activity and that this activation is mediated by the phosphorylation of tyrosine residue 493 by the src family of PTKs. The activity of baculoviral expressed ZAP-70 was up-regulated 10-fold when ZAP-70 was co-infected and phosphorylated by the src family PTK, lck. Mutation of Y493 alone abrogated the ability of ZAP-70 to be activated by lck. Moreover, we demonstrate that phosphorylation of Y493 and activation of ZAP-70 is required for antigen receptor-mediated induction of interleukin-2 (IL-2) secretion in lymphocytes.

D011948 Receptors, Antigen, T-Cell Molecules on the surface of T-lymphocytes that recognize and combine with antigens. The receptors are non-covalently associated with a complex of several polypeptides collectively called CD3 antigens (CD3 COMPLEX). Recognition of foreign antigen and the major histocompatibility complex is accomplished by a single heterodimeric antigen-receptor structure, composed of either alpha-beta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, ALPHA-BETA) or gamma-delta (RECEPTORS, ANTIGEN, T-CELL, GAMMA-DELTA) chains.

D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.
