| Sample Type: |
tissue homogenates, cell lysates or other biological fluids. |
| Tissue Specificity | Is detected in the thymus, lymph node and very faintly in the spleen, but is not detected in the liver, lung, kidney, heart, brain, intestine or testis. Expressed in T-lymphocytes and mast cells. It may also be expressed in natural killer cells. |
| Post Translational Modifications | Phosphorylated at Tyr-517 in the activation loop of the kinase domain by LCK. Subsequent autophosphorylation at Tyr-186 leads to the kinase activation. The autophosphorylated Tyr-186 lies within the substrate binding sequence of the SH3 domain. Ubiquitinated. |
| Function | Tyrosine kinase that plays an essential role in regulation of the adaptive immune response. Regulates the development, function and differentiation of conventional T-cells and nonconventional NKT-cells. When antigen presenting cells (APC) activate T-cell receptor (TCR), a series of phosphorylation lead to the recruitment of ITK to the cell membrane, in the vicinity of the stimulated TCR receptor, where it is phosphorylated by LCK. Phosphorylation leads to ITK autophosphorylation and full activation. Once activated, phosphorylates PLCG1, leading to the activation of this lipase and subsequent cleavage of its substrates. In turn, the endoplasmic reticulum releases calcium in the cytoplasm and the nuclear activator of activated T-cells (NFAT) translocates into the nucleus to perform its transcriptional duty. Phosphorylates 2 essential adapter proteins: the linker for activation of T-cells/LAT protein and LCP2. Then, a large number of signaling molecules such as VAV1 are recruited and ultimately lead to lymphokine production, T-cell proliferation and differentiation. Required for TCR-mediated calcium response in gamma-delta T-cells, may also be involved in the modulation of the transcriptomic signature in the Vgamma2-positive subset of immature gamma-delta T-cells. Phosphorylates TBX21 at 'Tyr-525' and mediates its interaction with GATA3. |
