Research Abstract |
Tyk2 is essential for B cell growth inhibition by IFN-α. We found that Tyk2 interacts with and phosphorylates Siva-1. Siva-1 is a proapoptotic protein, and the interaction between Tyk2 and Siva-1 augmented Siva-1-induced apoptosis in Ba/F3 cells (murine pro-B cells). These observations suggest that Siva-1 forms a functional complex with Tyk2 and participates in the transduction of apoptotic signals of lymphocyte.
