Biological Activity

Description

ALKAL1 Protein, Human (His, B2M) is a potent activating ligand for human ALK that binds to the extracellular domain of ALK.

Background

ALK and LTK ligand 1 (ALKAL1) also named “augmentor-β” or “FAM150A” is identified as a potent activating ligand for human ALK that bind to the extracellular domain of ALK. ALKAL1 is upregulated in colorectal cancer tissues and cell lines. Upregulation of ALKAL1 correlated with tumor malignancy and poor prognosis in colorectal cancer. ALKAL1 silencing inhibited tumorigenesis, metastasis and invasion of colorectal cancer cells, and inhibits SHH signaling pathway, which is essential for ALKAL1 induced migration. These findings reveal a new mechanism by which ALKAL1 participates in colorectal cancer migration and invasion via activating the SHH signaling pathway[1].
