Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryIntercellular communication is often mediated by receptors on the surface of one cell that recognize and are activated by specific protein ligands released by other cells. Members of one class of cell surface receptors, receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs), are characterized by having a cytoplasmic domain containing intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity. This kinase activity is regulated by the binding of a cognate ligand to the extracellular portion of the receptor. DeChiara et al. (1996) [PubMed 8653786] noted that the RTKs, known to be expressed in cell type-specific fashions, play a role critical for the growth and differentiation of those cell types. For example, members of the neural-specific TRK family that recognize nerve growth factor are absolutely required for the survival and development of discrete neuronal subpopulations, and the receptor tyrosine kinases TIE1 (MIM 600222) and TIE2 (MIM 600221) play a critical role in the development of normal blood vessels.[supplied by OMIM]

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: O15146 # Receptor tyrosine kinase that is a key mediator of agrin's action and is involved in neuromuscular junction (NMJ) organization (By similarity).
SIZE: 869 amino acids; 97056 Da
SUBUNIT: Interacts with DOK7, which probably regulates its activity (By similarity).
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Potential).
DISEASE: SwissProt: O15146 # Defects in MUSK is a cause of autosomal recessive congenital myasthenic syndrome (CMS) [MIM:608931]. Congenital myasthenic syndromes are inherited disorders of neuromuscular transmission that stem from mutations in presynaptic, synaptic, or postsynaptic proteins. MUSK mutations lead to decreased agrin- dependent AChR aggregation, a critical step in the formation of the neuromuscular junction.
SIMILARITY: SwissProt: O15146 ## Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. & Contains 1 FZ (frizzled) domain. & Contains 3 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains. & Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
