Bruton ’ s Tyrosine Kinase Links the B Cell Receptor to Nuclear Factor k B Activation
The recognition of antigen by membrane immunoglobulin M (mIgM) results in a complex series of signaling events in the cytoplasm leading to gene activation. Bruton’s tyrosine kinase (BTK), a member of the Tec family of tyrosine kinases, is essential for the full repertoire of IgM signals to be transduced. We examined the ability of BTK to regulate the nuclear factor (NF)k B/Rel family of transcr...
متن کاملBTK (Bruton agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase)
The BTK protein is a 77 kDa protein of 659 amino acids. Translation of the BTK transcript starts at the ATG site that is located in exon 2 and ends in exon 19. The BTK protein is composed of an N-terminal Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain followed three protein interacting domains: Tec homology (TH) region, Src homology 3 (SH3) domain and SH2 domain. A tyrosine-kinase catalytic domain is located ...
متن کاملThe Protein Product of the c - cb ! Protooncogene Is Phosphorylated after B Cell Receptor Stimulation and Binds the SH 3 Domain of Bruton ' s Tyrosine Kinase
X-linked agammaglobulinemia, a B cell immunodeficiency, is caused by mutations in the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) gene. The absence of a functional Btk protein leads to a failure of B cell differentiation and antibody production. B cell receptor stimulation leads to the phosphorylation of the Btk protein and it is, therefore, likely that Btk is involved in B cell receptor signaling. As a non...
متن کاملDevelopmental expression of tyrosine kinase b in rat vestibular nuclear neurons responding to horizontal and vertical linear accelerations
Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is known to be crucial for the development of peripheral vestibular neurons. However, the maturation profile of the BDNF signal transducing receptor, tyrosine kinase B (TrkB) in functionally activated otolith-related vestibular nuclear neurons of postnatal rats remains unexplored. In the present study, conscious Sprague-Dawley rats (P4 to adult) were sub...
متن کاملCockayne syndrome protein B interacts with and is phosphorylated by c-Abl tyrosine kinase
The Cockayne Syndrome group B (CSB) protein plays important roles in transcription, transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair and base excision DNA repair. c-Abl kinase also plays a role in DNA repair as a regulator/coordinator of the DNA damage response. This study presents evidence that the N-terminal region of CSB interacts with the SH3 domain of c-Abl in vitro and in vivo. In additio...
