Constitutive Proteolysis of the ErbB-4 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase by a Unique, Sequential Mechanism
The heregulin receptor tyrosine kinase ErbB-4 is constitutively cleaved, in the presence or absence of ligand, by an exofacial proteolytic activity producing a membrane-anchored cytoplasmic domain fragment of 80 kD. Based on selective sensitivity to inhibitors, the proteolytic activity is identified...
