TYK2

This gene encodes a member of the tyrosine kinase and, more specifically, the Janus kinases (JAKs) protein families. This protein associates with the cytoplasmic domain of type I and type II cytokine receptors and promulgate cytokine signals by phosphorylating receptor subunits. It is also component of both the type I and type III interferon signaling pathways. As such, it may play a role in anti-viral immunity. A mutation in this gene has been associated with hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIES) - a primary immunodeficiency characterized by elevated serum immunoglobulin E. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Interaction

Interacts with JAKMIP1 (PubMed:15277531, PubMed:20478313). Interacts with PIK3R1; this interaction is important for cell migration (PubMed:10995743). (Microbial infection) Interacts with Epstein-Barr virus protein LMP1; this interaction inhibits TYK2-mediated interferon signaling. (Microbial infection) Interacts with papillomavirus-18 protein E6; this interaction impairs JAK-STAT activation by interferon-alpha.

Molecular function

Kinase, Transferase, Tyrosine-protein kinase
