Background: Janus Kinase 3 (JAK3) belongs to the Jak family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases comprises four structurally related kinases: Jak1, Jak2, Jak3, and Tyk2. JAK3 is primarily expressed in hematopoietic cells and involved in various processes such as cell growth, development, or differentiation. The JAK3 protein presents seven JAK homology (JH) domains common with the other JAK proteins. The JH1 domain is a kinase domain whose activity is regulated in part by phosphorylation of key tyrosine residues (Y980 and Y981) in its kinase activation loop. N-terminal to JH1 is the catalytically inactive pseudo-kinase domain (JH2), which represents a unique feature of JAK proteins. The JH2 is thought to interact with signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) and negatively regulate kinase activity of the JH1 domain. Upon interaction to the heteromeric cytokine receptors, including IL2- IL4-, IL7-, IL9-, IL-13, IL15-, and IL21-receptor subunit called common γc JAK3 proteins become autophosphorylated and docking sites for signaling molecules, including STAT factors, Phosphatidyl-Inositol 3-Kinase (PI3K) and Insulin Receptor Substrate (IRS) were provided. Phosphorylation of STAT factors allows their translocation to the nucleus to regulate gene transcription of a wide variety of target genes. Recent data revealed that abnormal activation of JAK3 due to activating mutations is found in human hematological malignancies, including acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) and cutaneous T cell lymphoma (CTCL).
