High impact information on SLI1

  • A PTB domain-inactivating point mutation (G306E), corresponding to a loss-of-function mutation in the Caenorhabditis elegans Cbl homologue SLI-1, severely compromised Cbl-N/Syk binding in vitro and Cbl/Syk association in transfected COS-7 cells [1].
  • Although a sli1-null strain grew normally, the IC50 of ISP-1 for the growth of this strain was markedly decreased compared with that for the parental strain, indicating that Sli1p is a major contributor to ISP-1 resistance in yeast [2].
  • On a sli1-null background, the increase in resistance to ISP-1 induced by YPK1 gene transfection was almost abolished [2].
