Abstract

The polypeptide growth factor, hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), shares the multidomain structure and proteolytic mechanism of activation of plasminogen and other complex serine proteinases. HGF/SF, however, has no enzymatic activity. Instead, it controls the growth, morphogenesis, or migration of epithelial, endothelial, and muscle progenitor cells through the receptor tyrosine kinase MET. Using small-angle x-ray scattering and cryo-electron microscopy, we show that conversion of pro(single-chain)HGF/SF into the active two-chain form is associated with a major structural transition from a compact, closed conformation to an elongated, open one. We also report the structure of a complex between two-chain HGF/SF and the MET ectodomain (MET928) with 1:1 stoichiometry in which the N-terminal and first kringle domain of HGF/SF contact the face of the seven-blade beta-propeller domain of MET harboring the loops connecting the beta-strands b-c and d-a, whereas the C-terminal serine proteinase homology domain binds the opposite "b" face. Finally, we describe a complex with 2:2 stoichiometry between two-chain HGF/SF and a truncated form of the MET ectodomain (MET567), which is assembled around the dimerization interface ...Continue Reading

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. Discover the latest research on cell signaling and RTK here.
