Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA).
Frontiers in Bioscience : a Journal and Virtual Library 2000 December 2
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a heritable immunodeficiency disorder that is caused by a differentiation block leading to almost complete absence of B lymphocytes and plasma cells. The affected protein is a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase, Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (Btk). Btk along with Tec, Itk, Bmx and Txk belong to a distinct family of protein kinases. These proteins contain five regions; PH, TH, SH3, SH2 and kinase domains. Mutations causing XLA may affect any of these domains. About 380 unique mutations have been identified and are collected in a mutation database, BTKbase. Here, we describe the structure, function, and interactions of the affected signaling molecules in atomic detail.
