Protein Effect | gain of function |
Gene Variant Descriptions | ALK F856S lies within the extracellular domain of the Alk protein (UniProt.org). F856S confers a gain of function to the Alk protein as demonstrated by increased cell proliferation in the absence of growth factor (PMID: 26032424, PMID: 34646012) and colony formation in culture (PMID: 26032424). |
