After ligation of membrane-bound IgM, CD22 is quickly tyrosine phosphorylated on its cytoplasmic ITIM sequence (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif). The tyrosine kinase involved in CD22 phosphorylation is LYN, a member of the Src kinase family (Smith et al. 1998). The CD22 cytoplasmic tail contains six tyrosines, three of which belong to the ITIM sequence (Nitschke & Tsubata 2004).
