Abstract excerpt
Expression of a receptor for human macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF or CSF-1), containing a point mutation which changes an aspartate to a valine at position 802 of the activating loop of the kinase domain, potently transforms the haemopoietic cell line FDC-P1 yet prevents Rat-2 fibroblast transformation. In order to understand this apparent paradox, aspartate 802 was changed by cassette mutagenesis to...
