FAM168B

A1KXE4

FUNCTION: Receptor tyrosine kinase that transduces signals from the extracellular matrix into the cytoplasm by binding growth factor GAS6 and which is thus regulating many physiological processes including cell survival, cell proliferation, migration and differentiation. Ligand binding at the cell surface induces dimerization and autophosphorylation of AXL. Following activation by ligand, AXL binds and induces tyrosine phosphorylation of PI3-kinase subunits PIK3R1, PIK3R2 and PIK3R3; but also GRB2, PLCG1, LCK and PTPN11. Other downstream substrate candidates for AXL are CBL, NCK2, SOCS1 and TNS2. Recruitment of GRB2 and phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase regulatory subunits by AXL leads to the downstream activation of the AKT kinase. GAS6/AXL signaling plays a role in various processes such as endothelial cell survival during acidification by preventing apoptosis, optimal cytokine signaling during human natural killer cell development, hepatic regeneration, gonadotropin-releasing hormone neuron survival and migration, platelet activation, or regulation of thrombotic responses. Plays also an important role in inhibition of Toll-like receptors (TLRs)-mediated innate immune response. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10403904, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11484958, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12364394, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12490074, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15507525, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15733062, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1656220, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18840707}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for lassa virus and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, possibly through GAS6 binding to phosphatidyl-serine at the surface of virion envelope. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17005688, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21501828, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22156524, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25277499}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Ebolavirus, possibly through GAS6 binding to phosphatidyl-serine at the surface of virion envelope. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22673088}.FUNCTION: Inhibitor of neuronal axonal outgrowth. Acts as a negative regulator of CDC42 and STAT3 and a positive regulator of STMN2. Positive regulator of CDC27. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:D4AEP3}.
