General annotation (Comments)

Function

Activation leads to the phosphorylation of SOC-1 on Tyr-408 triggering PTP-2 recruitment and/or activation. Activates the SEM-5/SOS-1/RAS/MAPK pathway. Acts in the hypodermis to regulate axon growth. Isoform 2 has no effect on axon growth but affects the maintenance of axon position. Isoform b acts as a receptor for an extracellular signal required for the guidance of sex myoblast migration during gonad development. Isoforms 1, 3, 4 and 5 appear to play a role in maintaining body morphology at higher temperatures. Ref.1 Ref.2 Ref.4

Catalytic activity

ATP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine = ADP + a [protein]-L-tyrosine phosphate.

Cofactor

Manganese By similarity.

Subunit structure

Interaction of egl-17 with isoform b is required for sex myoblast chemoattraction. Isoforms a, c, d and e interact with let-756 and play a role in the regulation of temperature-dependent growth.

Subcellular location

Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.

Developmental stage

Expressed in the hypodermal membrane during the larval stage. Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protein kinase superfamily. Tyr protein kinase family. Fibroblast growth factor receptor subfamily.

Contains 3 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.

Contains 1 protein kinase domain.
