BTK (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 کاملPhosphorylation of Staphylococcus aureus Protein-Tyrosine Kinase Affects the Function of Glucokinase and Biofilm Formation
Background: When Staphylococcus aureus is grown in the presence of high concentration of external glucose, this sugar is phosphorylated by glucokinase (glkA) to form glucose-6-phosphate. This product subsequently enters into anabolic phase, which favors biofilm formation. The presence of ROK (repressor protein, open reading frame, sugar kinase) motif, phosphate-1 and -2 sites, and tyrosine kina...
متن کاملBruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA).
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a heritable immunodeficiency disorder that is caused by a differentiation block leading to almost complete absence of B lymphocytes and plasma cells. The affected protein is a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase, Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (Btk). Btk along with Tec, Itk, Bmx and Txk belong to a distinct family of protein kinases. These prote...
متن کاملDifferential Evolutionary Wiring of the Tyrosine Kinase Btk
BACKGROUND A central question within biology is how intracellular signaling pathways are maintained throughout evolution. Btk29A is considered to be the fly-homolog of the mammalian Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk), which is a non-receptor tyrosine-kinase of the Tec-family. In mammalian cells, there is a single transcript splice-form and the corresponding Btk-protein plays an important role for B...
