Preparation and Storage

Background: Brk

BRK (breast tumor kinase; also known as PTK6) is a 50 kDa, intracellular non-receptor tyrosine kinase. It was first identified in human breast tumor cell lines, is frequently over‑expressed in primary breast tumors, and is absent from normal breast tissue. Other sites of expression include colon, small intestine and prostate. Human BRK is 451 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one SH3 domain (aa 12‑69), one SH2 domain (aa 77‑170) and a Tyr-kinase catalytic domain (aa 183‑444). There are two potential isoforms. The first has a 66 aa extension on the N-terminus, while the second shows the same extension plus a four aa insert after Arg 277. Over aa 1‑70, human BRK is 79% aa identical to mouse Brk.
