| UniProt Protein Function: | CRK: an adaptor protein with an SH2-SH3-SH3 domain structure. Recruits cytoplasmic proteins through SH2-phospho-tyrosine interaction. Phosphorylated by Abl, IGF-IR and EGFR. Phosphorylation induces a change in intramolecular folding and SH2 interactions, causing its rapid dissociation from the tyrosine kinase complex. |

| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes a member of an adapter protein family that binds to several tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. The product of this gene has several SH2 and SH3 domains (src-homology domains) and is involved in several signaling pathways, recruiting cytoplasmic proteins in the vicinity of tyrosine kinase through SH2-phosphotyrosine interaction. The N-terminal SH2 domain of this protein functions as a positive regulator of transformation whereas the C-terminal SH3 domain functions as a negative regulator of transformation. Two alternative transcripts encoding different isoforms with distinct biological activity have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
