Gene: [03q1/TFG] TRK-fused gene (TRKT3 oncogene); [TRKT3 ]
COM |
The TFG gene was mapped to 3q11-q12 by FISH (Mencinger-1997). |
FUN |
The thyroid TRK-T3 oncogene results from the fusion of the tyrosine kinase domain of NTRK1 (GEM:01q2/NTRK1) to sequences of TFG gene. The 68 kDa TRK-T3 fusion oncoprotein displays a constitutive tyrosine kinase activity resulting in its capability to transform mouse NIH3T3 cells. The TFG portion of TRK-T3 contains a coiled-coil domain most likely responsible for the constitutive, ligand-independent activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase activity (Greco-1995; Mencinger-1997)." |
