#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

Activated RTKs and cytokine receptors promote PLCγ activity in two ways: 

By localizing PLCγ to the membrane

By phosphorylating PLCγ

The SH2 domains of PLCγ bind to specific phosphotyrosines on the activated RTKs and cytokine receptors, thus positioning PLCγ close to PIP2.
