Gene Symbol FLT3
Synonyms CD135 | FLK-2 | FLK2 | STK1
Gene Description FLT3, fms related receptor tyrosine kinase 3, activates Akt, Ras, and Erk pathways to regulate differentiation, proliferation, and survival of hematopoietic progenitor cells (PMID: 29316714, PMID: 28538663). Activating mutations of FLT3 are common in hematologic tumors (PMID: 19467916) and the internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation is commonly observed in acute myeloid leukemia (PMID: 30181385, PMID: 32241850).

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
