Tyro3 (TYRO3 protein tyrosine kinase) is an 890 amino acid protein that belongs to the TAM (Tyro3, Axl and Mer) receptor family. Tyro3 is mapped to human chromosome 15q15. It is highly expressed in the nervous system like the neocortex, hippocampus and cerebellum. It is also present in monocytes, macrophages, platelets, dendritic cells and NK cells, breast, ovary, testis, lung, kidney, retinal pigment epithelium and osteoclasts.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human MER/SKY around the phosphorylation site of Tyr749/681.
Immunogen Range: 716-765
Biochem/physiol Actions
Tyro3 (TYRO3 protein tyrosine kinase) serves as a therapeutic target in breast cancer. This protein is involved in spermatogenesis, immunoregulation, and phagocytosis. It controls disseminated prostate cancer cellular dormancy. TYRO3 helps in the survival and transport of of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons within the forebrain. Mutation in TYRO3 result in retinitis pigmentosa.

The homologous proteins Gas6 and protein S (ProS1) are both natural ligands for the TAM (Tyro3, Axl, MerTK) receptor tyrosine kinases. ProS1 selectively activates Tyro3; however, the precise molecular interface of the ProS1-Tyro3 contact has not been characterised. We used
