Abstract excerpt
The receptor for the type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) regulates multiple cellular functions impacting on the metastatic phenotype of tumor cells, including cellular proliferation, anchorage-independent growth, survival, migration, synthesis of the 72-kDa type IV collagenase and invasion. We have used site-directed mutagenesis to generate domain-specific mutants of the receptor beta subunit to analyze the...
