- Abstract
The Janus family of protein tyrosine kinases (JAKs) regulate cellular processes involved in cell growth, differentiation and transformation through their association with cytokine receptors. We have recently identified the JAK-binding protein, JAB that inhibits various cytokine-dependent JAK signalling pathways. JAB inhibits JAK2 tyrosine kinase activity by binding to the kinase domain (JH1 domain) through the N-terminal kinase inhibitory region (KIR) and the SH2 domain. The SH2 domain of JAB has been shown to bind to the phosphorylated Y1007 in the activation loop of JH1. We also identified another JAK-binding protein, CIS3 (cytokine-inducible SH2-protein 3, or SOCS3) that inhibits signalling of various cytokines. However, the mechanism of JAK signal inhibition by CIS3 has not been clarified.
