Disease relevance of Cttn

 

High impact information on Cttn

  • Cortactin, a p80-85 substrate of src- and fyn-related kinases that localizes with actin at cell adhesion sites, is increasingly tyrosine phosphorylated in calcium- and TPA-induced differentiation, with a time course which parallels that of fyn activation [5].
  • HS1, the leukocyte-specific homolog of cortactin, regulates F-actin in vitro and is phosphorylated in response to TCR ligation, but its role in lymphocyte activation has not been addressed [6].
  • Cortactin, a filamentous actin (F-actin)-associated protein and prominent substrate of Src, is implicated in progression of breast tumours through gene amplification at chromosome 11q13 [7].
  • When ligated by heparin-binding (HB) growth-associated molecule (GAM; pleiotrophin), N-syndecan mediates cortactin-Src kinase-dependent neurite outgrowth [8].
  • Furthermore, Y-->D mutation of three tyrosine residues targeted by Src (Y421, Y466, and Y482) inhibited the ability of S405,418D cortactin to activate N-WASP [9].
