Under resting conditions, the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)
serves to both stabilize and inactivate the p110 catalytic subunit. The inhibitory activity of
p85 is relieved by occupancy of the NH 2-terminal SH2 domain of p85 by phosphorylated
tyrosine. Src family kinases phosphorylate tyrosine 688 in p85, a process that we have
shown to be reversed by the activity of the p85-associated SH2 domain-containing
phosphatase SHP1. We demonstrate that phosphorylation of the downstream PI3K target …
