RYK Receptor-Like Tyrosine Kinase Definition

Widely expressed by human RYK Gene (TYR Kinase Family), 604-aa 68-kDa (precursor) RYK Receptor-Like Tyrosine Kinase is a potential growth factor receptor protein tyrosine kinase, containing a WIF domain, that differs from other family members at a number of conserved residues in the activation and nucleotide binding domains. RYK does not appear to be regulated by phosphorylation in the activation segment and mediation of biological activity may occur by recruitment of a signaling-competent auxiliary protein. (NCI)
