Lyn, active, mouse

Background Information:

The Lyn protein is a member of the Src family of non-receptor-associated protein-tyrosine kinases. LYN A differs from LYN B in having an additional 21 amino acids at the amino terminus. Lyn undergoes a concentration-dependent autophosphorylation, thus activating the catalytic site and decreasing the accessibility of the SH2 domain. Lyn phosphorylates and activates Tec, non-receptor tyrosine kinase that is coexpressed with Lyn and acts downstream of Lyn in intracellular signaling pathways. Lyn tyrosine kinase has been shown to be necessary for IgE-receptor (FceRI)-mediated mast-cell activation. EMBL M64608, N425D as reported in SWISS PROT P25911
