Abstract excerpt
Many ligand-independent receptor tyrosine kinases are tumorigenic. The biochemical signals that mediate ligand-independent transformation of cells by these transmembrane receptors are poorly defined. In this report, we demonstrate that a constitutively activated mutant epidermal growth factor receptor (v-ErbB) induces the formation of a transformation-specific signaling module that complexes with myosin II. The...
