Receptor-stimulated generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) modulates signal transduction, although the mechanism(s) is unclear. One potential basis is the reversible oxidation of the active site cysteine of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Here, we show that activation of the antigen receptor of T cells (TCR), which induces production of ROS, induces transient inactivation of the SH2 domain-containing PTP, SHP-2, but not the homologous SHP-1. SHP-2 is recruited to the LAT ...[more]
