About This Section
| Entrez Gene summary for BLK: This gene encodes a nonreceptor tyrosine-kinase of the src family of proto-oncogenes that are typically involved incell proliferation and differentiation. The protein has a role in B-cell receptor signaling and B-cell development.The protein also stimulates insulin synthesis and secretion in response to glucose and enhances the expression ofseveral pancreatic beta-cell transcription factors. (provided by RefSeq) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: BLK_HUMAN, P51451Function: Modulator of beta-cells function, acting through the up-regulation of PDX1 and NKX6-1 and consequentstimulation of insulin secretion in response to glucose Gene Wiki entry for BLK |

Defects in BLK are a cause of maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 11 (MODY11) [MIM:613375]. MODY11 is aform of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset in childhood or earlyadulthood (usually before 25 years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent insulin-independence atthe beginning of the disease
