Abstract excerpt
Activation of tyrosine kinase receptors is associated with human tumors. Tumorigenic versions of several RTKs, such as Ret, Kit and Met carry activating mutations at highly conserved residues of the tyrosine kinase domain. We have investigated the effect of some of these mutations on the NTRK1/NGF receptor, for which no naturally occurring activating point mutations have been so far detected. We introduced the...
