Abstract:Ligand-induced receptor dimerization is the first functional step in receptor signaling, representing the most proximal, functional read-out for receptor activation. Here we present a novel application of the Enzyme Fragment Complementation system to monitor receptor-receptor interactions at the surface of intact cells, applicable to diverse receptor types such as RTKs, Interleukin receptors, BMP receptors and cytokine receptors, amongst others. For the purpose of this poster, we will focus on the HER family o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
