ACK Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

This gene encodes a tyrosine kinase that binds Cdc42Hs in its GTP-bound form and inhibits both the intrinsic and GTPase-activating protein (GAP) -stimulated GTPase activity of Cdc42Hs. This binding is mediated by a unique sequence of 47 amino acids C-terminal to an SH3 domain. The protein may be involved in a regulatory mechanism that sustains the GTP-bound active form of Cdc42Hs and which is directly linked to a tyrosine phosphorylation signal transduction pathway. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified from this gene, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008], catalytic activity:ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate., cofactor:Magnesium., enzyme regulation:The SH3 domain appears to play an autoinhibitory role., function:Downstream effector of CDC42 which mediates CDC42-dependent cell migration via phosphorylation of BCAR1. Binds to both poly- and mono-ubiquitin and regulates ligand-induced degradation of EGFR. Participates in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. May be involved both in adult synaptic function and plasticity and in brain development., sequence caution:Unlikely isoform. Aberrant splice sites., similarity:Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family., similarity:Contains 1 CRIB domain., similarity:Contains 1 protein kinase domain., similarity:Contains 1 SH3 domain., subunit:Interacts with CDC42. Interacts with activated CSPG4.
