Also Known as MER; RP38; c-Eyk; c-mer; Tyro12

Species: Homo sapiens

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 10461

About MERTK

Cytogenetic location: 2q13 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:111,898,607-112,029,561 (from NCBI)

This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues, 53 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in adrenal (RPKM 25.0), spleen (RPKM 11.3) and 21 other tissues.

Summary

This gene is a member of the Mer/Axl/Tyro3 receptor kinase family and encodes a transmembrane protein with two fibronectin type-III domains, two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains, and one tyrosine kinase domain. Mutations in this gene have been associated with disruption of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) phagocytosis pathway and onset of autosomal recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP).
