InnateDB Annotation
Summary
Btk interacts with intracellular MHC class II molecules to activate adaptor molecules Myd88 and Ticam1 to promote TLR signalling.
Btk is a positive regulator in the ITAM-mediated Trem1/Tyrobp pathway, which induces pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha, Il8, and activation/differentiation cell surface markers.
Btk directly phosphorylates Tlr3 and plays a critical role in the induction of inflammatory cytokines and Ifnb.
Btk is required for the activation of natural killer cells.
Btk is a negative regulator of TLR- or TNF-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in neutrophils. (Demonstrated in human)
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] BTK is a Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-binding protein that participates in NF-kappaB activation by TLR4.
[Homo sapiens] BTK interacts with intracellular MHC class II molecules to activate adaptor molecules MYD88 and TICAM1 to promote TLR signalling. (Demonstrated in murine model)
[Homo sapiens] BTK is a positive regulator in the ITAM-mediated TREM1/TYROBP pathway, which induces pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-alpha, IL8, and activation/differentiation cell surface markers. Patients suffering from X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), which is a rare hereditary disease caused by mutation in the BTK gene, show reduced TNF-alpha induction in PBMCs upon TREM1 engagement.
[Homo sapiens] BTK directly phosphorylates TLR3 and plays a critical role in the induction of inflammatory cytokines and IFNB. (Demonstrated in mice)
[Homo sapiens] BTK is required for the activation of natural killer cells. (Demonstrated in mice)
[Homo sapiens] BTK is a negative regulator of TLR- or TNF-stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in neutrophils.
[Homo sapiens] BTK regulates TLR9-mediated induction of cytokines in plasmacytoid dendritic cells, but has no role in TLR7 signalling.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000010671:
The protein encoded by this gene plays a crucial role in B-cell development. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked agammaglobulinemia type 1, which is an immunodeficiency characterized by the failure to produce mature B lymphocytes, and associated with a failure of Ig heavy chain rearrangement. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2008]
The protein encoded by this gene plays a crucial role in B-cell development. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked agammaglobulinemia type 1, which is an immunodeficiency characterized by the failure to produce mature B lymphocytes, and associated with a failure of Ig heavy chain rearrangement. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2013]
