Phosphorylation of tyrosines in the Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motif (ITAM) region of membrane-linked IgG molecules is critical for initiating signal transduction pathways that lead to immune response formation. This modification allows for the recruitment and activation of Syk kinases, which are essential for downstream signaling events.
