Gene information for MET (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4233
Official gene symbolMET
Full namemet proto-oncogene (hepatocyte growth factor receptor)
Aliases,AUTS9,HGFR,RCCP2,c-Met,
Gene summaryThe proto-oncogene MET product is the hepatocyte growth factor receptor and encodes tyrosine-kinase activity. The primary single chain precursor protein is post-translationally cleaved to produce the alpha and beta subunits, which are disulfide linked to form the mature receptor. Various mutations in the MET gene are associated with papillary renal carcinoma. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
