Bruton's tyrosine kinase (or Btk) is a type of kinase enzyme implicated in the primary immunodeficiency disease X-linked agammaglobulinemia (Bruton's agammaglobulinemia). Its exact mechanism of action remains unknown, but it plays a crucial role in B cell maturation as well as mast cell activation through the high-affinity IgE receptor. Patients with XLA have normal pre-B cell populations in their bone marrow but these cells fail to mature and enter the circulation. The BTK gene is located on the X chromosome.[1] At least 400 mutations of the BTK gene have been identified.

Btk contains a PH domain which binds Phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PIP3). PIP3 binding induces Btk to phosphorylate phospholipase C, which in turn hydrolyzes PIP2, a phosphatidylinositol, into two second messagers, inositol triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol(DAG), which then go on to modulate the activity of downstream proteins during B-cell signalling.

Bruton's tyrosine kinase was discovered in 1993 and is named for Dr. Ogden Bruton, who first described XLA in 1952.[1]
