FYN, A CRAZY GENE...

IT DOES NOT KNOW WHEN TO STOP INTERACTING
IT IS INVOLVED IN CRAZINESS (ALZHEIMER'S)
BUT YET IT KEEPS DOING ITS THING.
CAN WE STOP IT ELECTIVELY?
WE ARE WORKING HARD!

Proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase Fyn is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FYN gene.[1]
This gene is a member of the protein-tyrosine kinase oncogene family. It encodes a membrane-associated tyrosine kinase that has been implicated in the control of cell growth. The protein associates with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and interacts with the fyn-binding protein.

Interactions

FYN has been shown to interact with:

WITH THIS MANY INTERACTIONS, IT IS A CRITICAL GENE, BUT WATCH OUT NOW, IT NEEDS TO BE HANDLED WITH CARE.  HIT IT ONLY IN A VERY SELECTIVE FASHION NOW! OR YOU LOSE THE HOST!

 

another crazy gene

 

Androgen receptor has been shown to interact with:

 wikipedia! remember what we said about short stature

this one also is that kind, lack of it lead to short stature so it it is a powerful gene, suppression here cures prostate cancers!
