UniProt functional annotation for P21860

UniProt code: P21860.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Tyrosine-protein kinase that plays an essential role as cell surface receptor for neuregulins. Binds to neuregulin-1 (NRG1) and is activated by it; ligand-binding increases phosphorylation on tyrosine residues and promotes its association with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PubMed:20682778). May also be activated by CSPG5 (PubMed:15358134). Involved in the regulation of myeloid cell differentiation (PubMed:27416908). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15358134, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20682778, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27416908}.
 
Catalytic activity: Reaction=ATP + L-tyrosyl-[protein] = ADP + H(+) + O-phospho-L-tyrosyl- [protein]; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:10596, Rhea:RHEA-COMP:10136, Rhea:RHEA- COMP:10137, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616, ChEBI:CHEBI:46858, ChEBI:CHEBI:82620, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=2.7.10.1; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:20351256};
Subunit: Monomer and homodimer. Heterodimer with each of the other ERBB receptors (Potential). Interacts with CSPG5 (PubMed:15358134). Interacts with GRB7 (PubMed:9516479). Interacts with MUC1 (PubMed:12939402). Interacts with MYOC (By similarity). Interacts with isoform 2 of PA2G4 (PubMed:11325528, PubMed:16832058). Found in a ternary complex with NRG1 and ITGAV:ITGB3 or ITGA6:ITGB4 (PubMed:20682778). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61526, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11325528, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12939402, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15358134, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16832058, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20682778, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9516479, ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular location: [Isoform 1]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Subcellular location: [Isoform 2]: Secreted.
Tissue specificity: Epithelial tissues and brain.
Developmental stage: Overexpressed in a subset of human mammary tumors.
Domain: The cytoplasmic part of the receptor may interact with the SH2 or SH3 domains of many signal-transducing proteins.
Ptm: Autophosphorylated (PubMed:20351256). Ligand-binding increases phosphorylation on tyrosine residues and promotes its association with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PubMed:20682778). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20351256, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20682778}.
Disease: Lethal congenital contracture syndrome 2 (LCCS2) [MIM:607598]: A form of lethal congenital contracture syndrome, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by degeneration of anterior horn neurons, extreme skeletal muscle atrophy, and congenital non- progressive joint contractures (arthrogryposis). The contractures can involve the upper or lower limbs and/or the vertebral column, leading to various degrees of flexion or extension limitations evident at birth. LCCS2 patients manifest craniofacial/ocular findings, lack of hydrops, multiple pterygia, and fractures, as well as a normal duration of pregnancy and a unique feature of a markedly distended urinary bladder (neurogenic bladder defect). The phenotype suggests a spinal cord neuropathic etiology. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17701904}. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Disease: Erythroleukemia, familial (FERLK) [MIM:133180]: An autosomal dominant myeloproliferative disorder characterized by neoplastic proliferation of erythroblastic and myeloblastic elements with atypical erythroblasts and myeloblasts in the peripheral blood. Disease penetrance is incomplete. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27416908}. Note=Disease susceptibility may be associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Similarity: Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. EGF receptor subfamily. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE- ProRule:PRU00159}.
