SLITRK1（SLIT and NTRK like family member 1），癌症关联基因，基因ID：114798，这个基因编码SLITRK蛋白家族的一个成员这个家族的成员是完整的膜蛋白，其特征是两个n末端富含亮氨酸重复序列（lrr）结构域和一个与trk神经营养素受体同源的c末端区域。然而，该基因编码的蛋白质与神经营养素受体缺乏同源性。这种蛋白质被认为与神经突起的生长有关该基因突变可能与抽动秽语综合征有关选择性剪接导致多个转录变体[由RefSeq提供，2013年7月]This gene encodes a member of the SLITRK protein family. Members of this family are integral membrane proteins that are characterized by two N-terminal leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains and a C-terminal region that shares homology with trk neurotrophin receptors. However， the protein encoded by this gene lacks the region of homology to neurotrophin receptors. This protein is thought to be involved in neurite outgrowth. Mutations in this gene may be associated with Tourette syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq， Jul 2013]。
