LYN, JTK8, Tyrosine-protein kinase Lyn, Lck/Yes-related novel protein tyrosine kinase, V-yes-1 Yamaguchi sarcoma viral related oncogene homolog, p53Lyn, p56Lyn
This gene encodes a tyrosine protein kinase, which maybe involved in the regulation of mast cell degranulation, and erythroid differentiation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011],catalytic activity:ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family.,similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. SRC subfamily.,similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain.,similarity:Contains 1 SH2 domain.,similarity:Contains 1 SH3 domain.,subunit:Interacts with phosphorylated LIME1 and with CD79A upon BCR activation. Interacts with Epstein-Barr virus LMP2A. Interacts with TGFB1I1. Interaction, via the SH2 and SH3, domains with MUC1 is stimulated by IL7 and, the subsequent phosphorylation increases the binding between MUC1 and CTNNB1/beta-catenin. Interacts with PPP1R15A via the SH3 domain.,tissue specificity:Expressed in primary neuroblastoma tumors.,
