gene: kin-24 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable non-membrane spanning protein tyrosine kinase activity and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation; innate immune response; and transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway. Predicted to be extrinsic component of cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in esophagus squamous cell carcinoma; hepatocellular carcinoma; and lung adenocarcinoma. Is an ortholog of human FER (FER tyrosine kinase) and FES (FES proto-oncogene, tyrosine kinase).
