Cytoskeletal Protein Phosphorylation in the Murine Macrophage and Its Relationship to Macrophage Activation

To elucidate the molecular processes underlying macrophage activation to cytotoxicity, I embarked upon a search for substrates for protein kinases in the murine macrophage. Based on evidence that the microfilament system participate in macrophage cytotoxicity, I investigated the possibility that substrates for protein kinases (phosphoproteins) may be associated with the microfilament system, and that alteration in these substrates occur with macrophage activation.
