Mouse Anti-RYK Recombinant Antibody (CBYJT-1660) (CBMAB-T0707-YJ)

Receptor-Like Tyrosine Kinase

RYK is an atypical member of the family of growth factor receptor protein tyrosine kinases, differing from other members at a number of conserved residues in the activation and nucleotide binding domains. This gene product belongs to a subfamily whose members do not appear to be regulated by phosphorylation in the activation segment. It has been suggested that mediation of biological activity by recruitment of a signaling-competent auxiliary protein may occur through an as yet uncharacterized mechanism. RYK has a leucine-rich extracellular domain with a WIF-type Wnt binding region, a single transmembrane domain, and an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain. It functions in stimulating Wnt signaling pathways such as the regulation of axon pathfinding.

May be a coreceptor along with FZD8 of Wnt proteins, such as WNT1, WNT3, WNT3A and WNT5A. Involved in neuron differentiation, axon guidance, corpus callosum establishment and neurite outgrowth. In response to WNT3 stimulation, receptor C-terminal cleavage occurs in its transmembrane region and allows the C-terminal intracellular product to translocate from the cytoplasm to the nucleus where it plays a crucial role in neuronal development.

Membrane
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
In cells that have undergone neuronal differentiation, the C-terminal cleaved part is translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus.

Extracellular: 26-227
Helical: 228-248
Cytoplasmic: 249-607

Proteolytically cleaved, in part by presenilin, in response to WNT3 stimulation. Cleavage occurs during neuronal differentiation.
