POST-TRANSLATIONAL MODIFICATION

Tyrosine phosphorylated in response to signaling via activated FLT3, KIT and PDGFRA (By similarity). Tyrosine phosphorylated by activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. Tyrosine phosphorylated by activated FLT1 and KDR. Tyrosine phosphorylated by activated PDGFRB. The receptor-mediated activation of PLCG1 involves its phosphorylation by tyrosine kinases, in response to ligation of a variety of growth factor receptors and immune system receptors. For instance, SYK phosphorylates and activates PLCG1 in response to ligation of the B-cell receptor. May be dephosphorylated by PTPRJ. Phosphorylated by ITK and TXK on Tyr-783 upon TCR activation in T-cells.; Ubiquitinated by CBLB in activated T-cells.

FUNCTION

Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) plays a crucial role in the initiation of receptor mediated signal transduction through the generation of the two second messengers, inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate and diacylglycerol from phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. There are many mammalian PLC isozymes, including PLC β1, PLC β2, PLC β3, PLC β4, PLC γ1, PLC γ2, PLC δ1, PLC δ2 and PLCε. PLC γ1 is widely distributed in bronchiolar epithelium, type I and II pneumocytes and fibroblasts of the interstitial tissue. Actin-regulatory protein Villin is tyrosine phosphorylated and associates with PLC γ1 in the brush border of intestinal epithelial cells. Villin regulates PLC γ1 activity by modifying its own ability to bind phosphatidylinositol 4,5-biphosphate. PLC γ1 binds Integrin α1/β1 and modulates Integrin α1/β-specific adhesion. PLC γ1 and Ca2+ play a direct role in VEGF-regulated endothelial growth, however this signaling pathway is not linked to FGF-mediated effects in primary endothelial cells. PLC γ1 is rapidly activated in response to growth factor stimulation and plays an important role in regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. It may also have a protective function during cellular response to oxidative stress.
