Background Information
MerTK (Mer tyrosine kinase), also known as RP38, c-Eyk, c-mer, and Tyro12, was first cloned from a human B lymphoblastoid expression library (PMID:8086340) and is one of the TAM (Tyro-3, Axl, and MerTK) receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family (PMID:23833304). Although this RTK, like others, can promote tumor cell proliferation to some extent, MERTK primarily lends tumor cells crucial survival advantages while promoting invasion, migration and metastasis, drug resistance, and, in the innate immune system, suppressing anti-tumor immunity (PMID:32417270). The multiple MERTK species observed are likely due to posttranslational modifications (PMID: 23585477).
