Preferred Term:
hepatocyte growth factor receptor
Definition:
Cell surface protein-tyrosine kinase receptors for hepatocyte growth factor. They consist of an extracellular alpha chain which is disulfide-linked to the transmembrane beta chain. The cytoplasmic portion contains the catalytic domain and sites critical for the regulation of kinase activity. Mutations of the gene for proto-oncogene proteins c-Met are associated with papillary renal carcinoma and other neoplasia.
