Abstract excerpt
Biochemical and genetic studies have shown that Jak2 is an essential component of EpoR signal transduction which is required for normal erythropoiesis. However, whether Jak2 is the sole direct mediator of EpoR signal transduction remains controversial. To address this issue, we have used an extensive and systematic mutational analysis across the EpoR cytoplasmic tail and transmembrane domain with the goal of...
