Leukocyte tyrosine kinase receptor
Gene: LTK
Feedback?
Variant information Variant position: help 763 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Type of variant: help LB/B The variants are classified into three categories: LP/P, LB/B and US.
  • LP/P: likely pathogenic or pathogenic.
  • LB/B: likely benign or benign.
  • US: uncertain significance

Residue change: help From Glutamate (E) to Lysine (K) at position 763 (E763K, p.Glu763Lys). Indicates the amino acid change of the variant. The one-letter and three-letter codes for amino acids used in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot are those adopted by the commission on Biochemical Nomenclature of the IUPAC-IUB.
Physico-chemical properties: help Change from medium size and acidic (E) to large size and basic (K) The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.
BLOSUM score: help 1 The score within a Blosum matrix for the corresponding wild-type to variant amino acid change. The log-odds score measures the logarithm for the ratio of the likelihood of two amino acids appearing by chance. The Blosum62 substitution matrix is used. This substitution matrix contains scores for all possible exchanges of one amino acid with another:
  • Lowest score: -4 (low probability of substitution).
  • Highest score: 11 (high probability of substitution).

Variant description: help May possibly contribute to susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus; increases autophosphorylation and interaction with PI3-kinase subunit p85. Any additional useful information about the variant.
Other resources: help Links to websites of interest for the variant.


Sequence information Variant position: help 763 The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.
Protein sequence length: help 864 The length of the canonical sequence.
Location on the sequence: help DPPRGCPGPVYRIMTQCWQH E PELRPSFASILERLQYCTQD The residue change on the sequence. Unless the variant is located at the beginning or at the end of the protein sequence, both residues upstream (20) and downstream (20) of the variant will be shown.
Residue conservation: help The multiple alignment of the region surrounding the variant against various orthologous sequences.

Sequence annotation in neighborhood: help The regions or sites of interest surrounding the variant. In general the features listed are posttranslational modifications, binding sites, enzyme active sites, local secondary structure or other characteristics reported in the cited references. The "Sequence annotation in neighborhood" lines have a fixed format:
  • Type: the type of sequence feature.
  • Positions: endpoints of the sequence feature.
  • Description: contains additional information about the feature.
TypePositionsDescription
Chain 17 – 864 Leukocyte tyrosine kinase receptor
Topological domain 450 – 864 Cytoplasmic
Domain 510 – 786 Protein kinase
Alternative sequence 171 – 864 Missing. In isoform Lambda P1.
Alternative sequence 449 – 864 Missing. In isoform Lambda P3.
Mutagenesis 750 – 750 G -> E. Increases autophosphorylation and interaction with PI3-kinase subunit p85 (demonstrated with chimeric EGFR-LTK).
Mutagenesis 753 – 753 Y -> F. Abolishes interaction with PI3-kinase subunit p85, impairs PI3 kinase activity and leads to apoptosis (demonstrated with chimeric EGFR-LTK).
