An orphan receptor tyrosine kinase family whose members serve as nonintegrin collagen receptors

Molecular Cell

Abstract

Mammalian cells constantly monitor and respond to a myriad of extracellular signals, often by using cell surface receptors. Two important classes of cell surface receptors include the receptor tyrosine kinases, which recognize peptide growth factors such as insulin, and the integrins, which most often mediate binding to components of the extracellular matrix. We report that the collagens serve as ligands for the previously orphan family of discoidin domain-containing receptor-like tyrosine kinases. The unexpected realization that an extracellular matrix molecule can directly serve as a ligand for receptor tyrosine kinases provides an example of ligands shared by integrins and receptor tyrosine kinases, and this finding seems likely to change prevailing views about the mechanisms by which cells perceive and respond to the extracellular matrix.

Cell Signaling by Tyrosine Kinases

Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are the high-affinity cell surface receptors for many polypeptide growth factors, cytokines, and hormones. RTKs have been shown not only to be key regulators of normal cellular processes but also to have a critical role in the development and progression of many types of cancer.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
