Phylogeny of Tec Family Kinases: Identification of a Pre-Metazoan Origin of Btk, Bmx, Itk, Tec, Txk and the Btk Regulator SH3BP5 [PDF]
It is generally considered mammals and birds have five Tec family kinases (TFKs): Btk, Bmx (also known as Etk), Itk, Tec, and Txk (also known as Rlk). Here, we discuss the domains and their functions and regulation in TFKs.

Targeting lipid signalling in cancer [PDF]
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) play an important role in a variety of cellular activities, including mitogenic signalling and cell survival, cytoskeletal remodelling, metabolic control, proliferation and vesicular trafficking.

Phosphatidylinositol-3-Kinase Regulates Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I Subcellular Localization and Selective Lipid Uptake in Hepatocytes [PDF]
Objective— The high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor scavenger receptor Class B type I (SR-BI) plays a key role in mediating the final step of reverse cholesterol transport. This study examined the possible regulation of hepatic SR-BI by phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K), a well known regulator ...

The CC Chemokine Monocyte Chemotactic Peptide-1 Activates both the Class I p85/p110 Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase and the Class II PI3K-C2α [PDF]
The cellular effects of MCP-1 are mediated primarily by binding to CC chemokine receptor-2. We report here that MCP-1 stimulates the formation of the lipid products of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, namely phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI 3,4,5-P3) in THP-1 cells that can be inhibited by ...

Syk-mediated translocation of PI3Kδ to the leading edge controls lamellipodium formation and migration of leukocytes [PDF]
The non-receptor tyrosine kinase Syk is mainly expressed in the hematopoietic system and plays an essential role in β2 integrin-mediated leukocyte activation.

Regulation of Hematopoietic Cell Development and Function Through Phosphoinositides
One of the most paramount receptor-induced signal transduction mechanisms in hematopoietic cells is production of the lipid second messenger phosphatidylinositol(3,4,5)trisphosphate (PIP3) by class I phosphoinositide 3 kinases (PI3K).
