Recombinant full-length human BTK (C481S) was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal His tag. BTK (also known as Bruton tyrosine kinase) plays a crucial role in B-lymphocyte differentiation and activation. BTK interacts with SRC homology 3 domains of FYN, LYN and HCK that are activated upon stimulation of B- and T-cell receptors. Defects in the BTK gene cause Agammaglobulinemia, an X-linked immunodeficiency characterized by failure to produce mature B lymphocyte cells and associated with a failure of Ig heavy chain rearrangement. The unique role of BTK makes it a desirable target for potential anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-viral agents as well as other treatments. Kinase Enzyme System contains: BTK (C481S) Kinase, 10microg (Human, full-length recombinant). MW: ~77kDa. Poly (4:1 Glu, Tyr) Peptide Substrate (1mg/ml). 5X Reaction Buffer, 0.1M DTT.
