We have found that upon enzymatic activation of Hck by the heavy metal mercuric chloride, there was a rapid increase in the levels of tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins including the proto-oncogene p120 (Cbl).

WEHI-231 is a mouse B-cell line, which is a well-established model for studying signal transduction in B lymphocytes, normally responding to cross-linking of the B-cell receptor (BCR) complex by the rapid upregulation of protein tyrosine kinase activity, followed by increased intracellular calcium and activation of protein kinase C.
