This gene is a member of the Src family of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs). The encoded protein contains N-terminal sites for myristylation and palmitylation, a PTK domain, and SH2 and SH3 domains which are involved in mediating protein-protein interactions with phosphotyrosine-containing and proline-rich motifs, respectively. The protein localizes to plasma membrane ruffles, and functions as a negative regulator of cell migration and adhesion triggered by the beta-2 integrin signal transduction pathway. Infection with Epstein-Barr virus results in the overexpression of this gene. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
A scoping review of human twin studies found that fetal growth restriction (FGR) in the smaller twin is associated with specific transcriptional and epigenetic changes in placental and other tissues, including increased expression of hypoxia-related genes like HIF1A and EPO, and altered DNA methylation in genes related to transcription regulation and tissue development [Dany Laure Wadji et al. DOI:10.1371/journal.pone.0315549].
