| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell surface transmembrane receptors form homo- or hetero-dimer upon binding of their ligands, resulting in an enhanced activation of their tyrosine phosphorylation activity. Cytoplasmic region of the tyrosine-phosphorylated receptor further binds to SH2 domain containing adaptor proteins or signaling molecules, and transduce their signals. However, regulatory molecules that bind cell surface receptor and its regulatory mechanisms still remain elusive. In this study, we found that (1) Necl-4 interacts with ErbB3 and regulates its downstream signaling and (2) nectin-1 and nectin-4 interact with the prolactin receptor and regulates prolactin receptor signaling for mammary gland development.
