Mass-spectrometry analysis of GroPIns interactors recently highlighted the ability of GroPIns to bind to the non-receptor tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1, a known promoter of Bax expression, suggesting that GroPIns might correct the Bax expression defect in CLL cells, thereby promoting their apoptotic demise. This evidence concerns the gene BAX and B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
