Specificity and Structure of a High Affinity Activin Receptor-like Kinase 1 (ALK1) Signaling Complex
21 Jun 2012
Abstract excerpt
Activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ALK1), an endothelial cell-specific type I receptor of the TGF-β superfamily, is an important regulator of normal blood vessel development as well as pathological tumor angiogenesis. As such, ALK1 is an important therapeutic target. Thus, several ALK1-directed agents are currently in clinical trials as anti-angiogenic cancer therapeutics. Given the biological and clinical...
