Human tumor cell membrane glycoprotein associated with protein kinase activity
Abstract:
A mouse MAb3 50H.19 raised against the human melanoma cell line MEL-T binds to carcinoma cell lines, carcinoma biopsy material, and certain epithelia of normal tissues. It immunoprecipitates two components from carcinoma cell lines, a major component of 22 kd which is O-glycosylated and a minor one of 24 kd which is additionally N-glycosylated. The immunocomplexed 50H.19 antigen exhibits protein kinase activity with substrate-specificity for casein and phosvitin, but not for histones. It phosphorylates on serine and threonine, but not tyrosine residues. Enzyme activity is cyclic AMP-independent.

Enzyme-linked Receptors
Neurotrophin (NT) receptors are a family of RTKs, including trkA, trkB, and trkC (tropomyosin-related kinase) receptors. TrkA is specific for nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-6, and neurotrophin-7. TrkB binds...
Metastasis
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
