关于 Crk

功能概要

This gene is part of a family of adapter proteins that mediate formation of signal transduction complexes in response to extracellular stimuli, such as growth and differentiation factors. Protein-protein interactions occur through the SH2 domain, which binds phosphorylated tyrosine residues, and the SH3 domain, which binds proline-rich peptide motifs. These interactions promote recruitment and activation of effector proteins to regulate cell migration, adhesion, and proliferation. In mouse this protein is essential for embryonic development. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms with distinct biological activity have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2013]
