Isolation and partial characterization of a murine cell surface glycoprotein with affinity for exogenously added beta 2-microglubulin.

abstract：:The c-Met oncoprotein is a cell-surface receptor for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). Signals through HGF and c-Met have been appreciated for their crucial roles in the development of many cell types, including liver cells. The present study examined whether c-Met is expressed in the thymus and whether c-Met/HGF signal...
