Description
Description
Receptor related to tyrosine kinase (Ryk) proteins are catalytically inactive members of the receptor tyrosine kinase superfamily. They are highly conserved in metazoa and act as important transducers of Wnt signals, particularly in the nervous system. (Adapted from FBrf0132248 and FBrf0222811.)
