Description
The FES gene encodes a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that belongs to the FES/FER family. It is involved in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and survival, particularly in hematopoietic cells. The protein contains an N-terminal FCH domain, a central SH2 domain, and a C-terminal tyrosine kinase domain. FES is implicated in myeloid leukemia and other cancers.
Disease Associations
| Disease category | Pathophysiological mechanism | Genomic evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Acute myeloid leukemia | FES overexpression or fusion proteins (e.g., FES-FGFR1) drive aberrant kinase signaling and proliferation | COSMIC, ClinVar |
| Myeloproliferative neoplasms | Activating mutations or translocations involving FES lead to constitutive kinase activity | COSMIC, OMIM |
| Colorectal cancer | FES expression is altered in some colorectal tumors, potentially affecting cell adhesion and migration | NCBI Gene, COSMIC |

Mutation functional classification
Loss of Function (LOF)
No well-characterized loss-of-function mutations reported in COSMIC or ClinVar.
Gain of Function (GOF)
FES-FGFR1 fusions and certain missense mutations (e.g., p.Gly703Arg) are predicted to increase kinase activity.
Dominant Negative (DN)
Not described for FES.

Protein Summary
The FES protein (UniProt P07332) is a 822-amino acid non-receptor tyrosine kinase. It localizes to the cytoplasm and is involved in signaling downstream of growth factor receptors and integrins. FES regulates myeloid cell differentiation and survival. Its kinase domain is essential for catalytic activity, and the SH2 domain mediates interactions with phosphotyrosine-containing proteins.
