Tyrosine phosphorylation regulates RIPK1 activity to limit cell death and inflammation

Abstract

Receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) is an important regulator of cell death pathways during embryogenesis and in infection/inflammation. Here authors show that tyrosine phosphorylation of RIPK1 by upstream kinases limits systemic inflammation and regulates haematopoietic homeostasis.
