Background

Function
FRK is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase in the BRK family kinases, distantly related to Src family kinases, and its biology centers on phosphorylation-dependent control of growth and signaling[1][2]. Mechanistically, FRK has been linked to PTEN stability, EGFR internalization, cyclin D1 nuclear accumulation, ITGB1/FAK signaling, and YAP ubiquitylation, placing it in cell-cycle, receptor-trafficking, adhesion, and Hippo-pathway research[3][4][5][6][7]. In disease models, FRK suppressed breast cancer cell proliferation and invasion, inhibited glioma growth or progression in several studies, but recurrent FRK-activating mutations drove STAT3 activation and proliferation in hepatocellular adenoma[3][5][6][7][8]. Compared with related isoforms, FRK/Rak/Gtk/Iyk/Bsk belongs to a conserved Brk/Srm/Frk/Src42A group that remains structurally distinct from c-Src and Fyn[2]. For experimental applications, FRK fusions in ALK-negative anaplastic large-cell lymphoma showed kinase targetability, and FRK-activating hepatocellular adenoma mutations showed sensitivity to Src inhibitors[8][9].
