2. Transcription factors regulating the Btk promoter
Abstract : Bruton's agammaglobulinemia tyrosine kinase (Btk) is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase-related to the Src family of kinases. Mutations in various parts of the gene have been shown to lead to X-linked agammaglobulinemia, an immunodeficiency disease which is characterized by a defect in B-cell development. READ MORE

3. Molecular biology of Brouton's tyrosine kinase
Abstract : X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is caused by an arrest in the B lymphocyte differentiation. XLA patients lack mature B-cells and subsequently antibody production. The defective gene causing XLA is the BTK gene, which codes for the protein Bruton s tyrosine kinase (Btk), a cytoplasmic enzyme related to the Src family of kinases. READ MORE

4. Subcellular localization and signalling of Brutons tyrosine kinase (Btk)
Abstract : Brutons tyrosine kinase (Btk) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase related to the Src family of kinases. Mutations in various parts of the gene have been shown to cause X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA), a primary immunodeficiency in humans, characterized by a defect in B-cell development. READ MORE

5. Molecular dissection of B-lymphocyte signalling using expression profiling
Abstract : Gene expression profiling and bioinformatics have emerged into playing a large and diverse role in many aspects of both the clinical and molecular research. These two approaches have in this thesis work been used in combination in order to shed light to the role of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) in B-lymphocyte development and signal transduction.
