  • Proto-Oncogene Protein lck

Scope note

  • This enzyme is a lymphoid-specific src family tyrosine kinase that is critical for T-cell development and activation. Lck is associated with the cytoplasmic domains of CD4, CD8 and the beta-chain of the IL-2 receptor, and is thought to be involved in the earliest steps of TCR-mediated T-cell activation.

History note

  • 98; use LYMPHOCYTE SPECIFIC PROTEIN TYROSINE KINASE P56(LCK) (NM) 1988-97
