Scope note: Familia de tirosina cinasas intracelulares que participan en la cascada de señalización de las citocinas al asociarse con RECEPTORES DE CITOCINAS específicos. Actúan sobre los FACTORES DE TRANSCRIPCIÓN STAT en la vía de señalización denominada vía JAK/STAT. El nombre cinasa Janus hace referencia al hecho de que las proteínas tienen dos dominios que transfieren fosfato.

Scope note: A family of intracellular tyrosine kinases that participate in the signaling cascade of cytokines by associating with specific CYTOKINE RECEPTORS. They act upon STAT TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS in signaling pathway referred to as the JAK/STAT pathway. The name Janus kinase refers to the fact the proteins have two phosphate-transferring domains.
