Most cancer cells showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Most gliomas and lymphomas as well as renal cancer were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
PTK7 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
CCK4
Description
Protein tyrosine kinase 7 (inactive) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a member of the receptor protein tyrosine kinase family of proteins that transduce extracellular signals across the cell membrane. The encoded protein lacks detectable catalytic tyrosine kinase activity, is involved in the Wnt signaling pathway and plays a role in multiple cellular processes including polarity and adhesion. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012]
