Abstract excerpt
The Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) gp55 glycoprotein binds to the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R), causing constitutive receptor signaling and the first stage of Friend erythroleukemia. We have used three independent strategies to further define this transforming molecular interaction....
