A 120-kDa protein that is tyrosine-phosphorylated upon antigen receptor ligation in B lymphocytes has been identified as the product of the c-cbl protooncogene. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl depends on the efficient association of membrane immunoglobulin heavy chains with the Ig alpha/beta heterodimer but is unimpaired in splenic B cells from the Xid mouse. Cross-linking of membrane IgM and membrane IgG, but not of CD40, leads to the tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl. In receptor-ligated B lymphocytes, p120cbl associates with an 85-kDa protein that has been identified as the 85-kDa subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase.
