Abstract

The Ras signaling pathway plays a critical role in B lymphocyte development and activation, but its activation mechanism has not been well understood. At least one mode of Ras regulation in B cells involves a Ras-guanyl nucleotide exchange factor, RasGRP3. We demonstrate here that RasGRP3 undergoes phosphorylation at Thr-133 upon B cell receptor cross-linking, thereby resulting in its activation. Deletion of phospholipase C-gamma2 or pharmacological interference with conventional PKCs resulted in marked reduction in both Thr-133 phosphorylation and Ras activation. Moreover, mutation of Thr-133 in RasGRP3 alone severely impaired its ability to activate Ras in B cell receptor signaling. Hence, our data suggest that PKC, after being activated by diacylglycerol, phosphorylates RasGRP3, thereby contributing to its full activation.

  • Several biochemical pathways and processes negatively regulate PLCγ2 activity and calcium flux after BCR engagement, including RasGRP3, Bam32, Dok-3 with Grb2, Themis2, BLNK, and SFRP2.

    “Several biochemical pathways and processes were shown to negatively regulate PLCγ2 activity and the resulting calcium flux after BCR engagement. These include RasGRP3 (39, 40), Bam32 (41), hematopoietic adaptor protein Dok-3 (downstream of kinase-3) with Grb2 (42), Themis2, an adaptor protein with no known enzymatic activity, via constitutive binding to Lyn, Grb2, and PLCγ2 to mediate its function”

    From The role of PLCγ2 in immunological disorders, cancer, and neurodegeneration (2021) · cites this paper as [40]

    The Abstract and Results describe PLC-γ2 as upstream of RasGRP3 activation after BCR engagement; they do not report that RasGRP3 negatively regulates PLC-γ2 or calcium flux. Searches for RasGRP3-mediated inhibition of PLC-γ2 and calcium flux found no passage addressing that claim. The cited paper does not address the other listed regulators. (LLM, conf=0.76)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
