Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Lyn-mediated phosphorylation of ITAMs triggers which 2 pathways, leading to allergic effects?
A
JAK-STAT
B
PKC
C
MAPK
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The MAPKKKs, which are protein Ser/Thr kinases, are often activated through phosphorylation and/or as a result of their interaction with a small GTP-binding protein of the Ras/Rho family in response to extracellular stimuli.

Detailed explanation-2: -Upon activation by phosphorylation, MAPK proteins dimerize, 5 and can then phosphorylate targets in the cytoplasm, and/or rapidly translocate to the nucleus where they phosphorylate and regulate nuclear target proteins and regulate gene expression.
