Scientific Background: Tyk2 is a protein-tyrosine kinase of the TK group and JakA family. Phosphorylation of Y1054 and Y1055 increases phosphotransferase activity. Tyk2 mediates intracellular signal transduction from Type I interferon-alpha/beta receptor (IFN) signalling and phosphorylates the interferon-alpha/beta receptor alpha chain. Missense mutations in this gene have been found in colon and ovarian tumours.
