| Background | SLP65 / BLNK (SH2 domain-containing leukocyte-specific phosphoprotein of 65 kDa; B cell linker protein), also known as BASH, is an adaptor protein that plays key role in B cell activation initiated by cross-linking the B cell receptor (BCR). Phosphorylated by Syk tyrosine kinase, SLP65 serves as a scaffold for Btk tyrosine kinase, Vav1 guanine nucleotide exchange factor, phospholipase C gamma2, as well as Grb2 and Nck adaptor proteins; thus represents a central linker protein that bridges the BCR-associated kinases with a multitude of signaling pathways. |
| Function | Functions as a central linker protein, downstream of the B-cell receptor (BCR), bridging the SYK kinase to a multitude of signaling pathways and regulating biological outcomes of B-cell function and development. Plays a role in the activation of ERK/EPHB2, MAP kinase p38 and JNK. Modulates AP1 activation. Important for the activation of NF-kappa-B and NFAT. Plays an important role in BCR-mediated PLCG1 and PLCG2 activation and Ca(2+) mobilization and is required for trafficking of the BCR to late endosomes. However, does not seem to be required for pre-BCR-mediated activation of MAP kinase and phosphatidyl-inositol 3 (PI3) kinase signaling. May be required for the RAC1-JNK pathway. Plays a critical role in orchestrating the pro-B cell to pre-B cell transition. May play an important role in BCR-induced B-cell apoptosis. [UniProt] |

| PTM | Following BCR activation, phosphorylated on tyrosine residues by SYK and LYN. When phosphorylated, serves as a scaffold to assemble downstream targets of antigen activation, including PLCG1, VAV1, GRB2 and NCK1. Phosphorylation of Tyr-84, Tyr-178 and Tyr-189 facilitates PLCG1 binding. Phosphorylation of Tyr-96 facilitates BTK binding. Phosphorylation of Tyr-72 facilitates VAV1 and NCK1 binding. Phosphorylation is required for both Ca(2+) and MAPK signaling pathways. |
