Protein summary

This is preferred isoform of ROS1 protein.
ROS1: proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase ROS isoform 1 precursor
Description:

This proto-oncogene, highly-expressed in a variety of tumor cell lines, belongs to the sevenless subfamily of tyrosine kinase insulin receptor genes. The protein encoded by this gene is a type I integral membrane protein with tyrosine kinase activity. The protein may function as a growth or differentiation factor receptor.
