Mutational analysis of the SH2-kinase linker region of Bruton's tyrosine kinase defines alternative modes of regulation for cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase families.
Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) plays critical roles in B cell development and activation. Mutations of Btk cause X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) in humans and X-linked immunodeficiency in mice. An Src homology domain 2-kinase linker region exists in all Src, Abl, ZAP70/Syk and Btk/Tec non-receptor tyrosine kinase families. Missense mutations in the Btk linker region can cause XLA, supporting ...
متن کاملA unique insert in the linker domain of Syk is necessary for its function in immunoreceptor signalling.
Accumulating data indicate that the 'linker' region of Syk, which lies between its tandem Src homology 2 (SH2) domains and kinase region, provides a critical function for the biological activity of Syk. This importance has been ascribed to the presence of tyrosine phosphorylation sites capable of mediating the recruitment of cellular effectors. We and others previously identified an alternative...
متن کاملStatus of serine tyrosine kinase at germline and expressional levels in asthma patients
Asthma is a disease marked by inflammation of airways with an increasing incidence rate worldwide especially among Asian population. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) is known to be involved in regulation of such inflammation response and thereby rendering its inevitable importance among asthma patients. DNA extraction followed by PCR and sequencing was performed for genomic analysis, mRNA analysis ...
متن کاملCbl-mediated negative regulation of the Syk tyrosine kinase. A critical role for Cbl phosphotyrosine-binding domain binding to Syk phosphotyrosine 323.
The proto-oncogene product Cbl has emerged as a potential negative regulator of the Syk tyrosine kinase; however, the nature of physical interactions between Cbl and Syk that are critical for this negative regulation remains unclear. Here we show that the phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain within the N-terminal transforming region of Cbl (Cbl-N) binds to phosphorylated Tyr323 in the linker re...
متن کاملCytogenetic and FMS-Like Tyrosine Kinase 3 Mutation Analyses in Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia Patients
Background: The secondary genetic changes other than the promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor (PML-RARA) fusion gene may contribute to the acute promyelocytic leukemogenesis. Chromosomal alterations and mutation of FLT3 (FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3) tyrosine kinase receptor are the frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia. However, the prognostic significance of FLT3 mutat...
