Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) is a member of the JAK1, JAK2, and JAK3 family of non-receptor Janus tyrosine kinases. Phosphorylation of TYK2 is induced by a broad range of cytokines and growth factors (IL12, IL23, and interferons) bound to their receptors. The main substrates, STATs, and cytokine receptors are among the other targets that the activated TYK2 goes on to phosphorylate. Cell division, migration, apoptosis, and proliferation are all accelerated by JAKs/STATs signaling. An appealing aim for anti-inflammatory treatments is to modify JAK/STATs signaling to lessen cytokine-induced pro-inflammatory responses.

The AlphaLISA SureFire Ultra Human and Mouse Phospho-TYK2 (Tyr1054/1055) Detection Kit is a sandwich immunoassay for the quantitative detection of phospho-TYK2 (Tyr1054/1055) in cellular lysates, using Alpha Technology.
