Description

SRMS (Src-related kinase lacking C-terminal regulatory tyrosine and N-terminal myristoylation sites) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a non-receptor tyrosine kinase belonging to the Src family. Unlike canonical Src kinases, SRMS lacks both the N-terminal myristoylation signal and the C-terminal regulatory tyrosine residue, suggesting distinct regulatory mechanisms. The protein is involved in cell signaling and proliferation, with expression predominantly in testis and certain cancer cell lines.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Cancer (general) SRMS overexpression may contribute to oncogenic signaling via aberrant kinase activity. COSMIC; limited direct evidence
Testicular germ cell tumors Elevated SRMS expression in testis suggests potential role in testicular cancer pathogenesis. NCBI Gene; expression data
Breast cancer SRMS has been reported as a potential biomarker in breast cancer subtypes. COSMIC; literature

Protein Summary

The SRMS protein (UniProt Q9H3Y6) is a 488-amino acid non-receptor tyrosine kinase. It contains an SH3 domain, an SH2 domain, and a tyrosine kinase catalytic domain, but lacks the N-terminal myristoylation site and C-terminal regulatory tyrosine typical of Src family kinases. This unique structure suggests alternative membrane localization and regulation. The protein is predominantly cytoplasmic and may be involved in cell proliferation and differentiation.
