Gene Information

human ... FLT3(2322)

General description

FLT3 (fms-related tyrosine kinase 3) is a tyrosine kinase receptor and the gene is localized to human chromosome 13q12. The encoded protein is composed of 993 amino acids, and consists of five immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains in its exoplasmic region. It is also composed of a transmembrane region, a juxtamembrane domain, and two tyrosine kinase domains in its intracellular domain. The tyrosine kinase domains are linked via a kinase-insert domain.

Biochem/physiol Actions

FLT3 (fms-related tyrosine kinase 3), upon interaction with its ligand, undergoes conformational changes to form homodimers. This results in phosphorylation and activation of downstream signaling pathways including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K/AKT), mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) pathways. Internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation or a point mutation in juxtamembrane domain-coding region or within the activation loop domain, respectively, of this gene lead to its constitutive action. FLT3/ITD mutation is associated with later stages of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pathogenesis. These patients have poor prognosis.

FLT3 is the most frequently mutated gene in cases of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML). About 30 to 35% of patients have either internal tandem duplications (ITDs) in the juxtamembrane domain or mutations in the activating loop of FLT3. FLT3 mutations

Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) is frequently detected in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and is associated with a dismal long-term prognosis. FLT3 tyrosine kinase inhibitors provide short-term disease control, but relapse invariably occurs within months. Pim

Patients with high FLT3 internal tandem duplication allelic ratios (FLT3/ITD-ARs) have a poor prognosis. Single-nucleotide polymorphism/comparative genomic hybridization, single-cell PCR and colony-forming assays were used to evaluate genotypic evolution of high FLT3/ITD-ARs in 85 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients.

FLT3-internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutations are found in approximately 30% of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). FLT3 inhibitors have shown clinical activity in AML with FLT3-ITD, but responses are usually short-lived. This study examined 69 FLT3-mutated patients with AML
