Disruption of the tumour-associated EMP3 enhances erythroid proliferation and causes the MAM-negative phenotype

Disruption of the tumour-associated EMP3 enhances erythroid proliferation and causes the MAM-negative phenotype

The molecular basis of the clinically important MAM blood group antigen present in most humans is unknown. We identify EMP3 as its encoding gene, establishing MAM as a new blood group system, and demonstrate the role of EMP3 in erythropoiesis through its interaction with the signalling molecule CD44...

Description
Résumé:The molecular basis of the clinically important MAM blood group antigen present in most humans is unknown. We identify EMP3 as its encoding gene, establishing MAM as a new blood group system, and demonstrate the role of EMP3 in erythropoiesis through its interaction with the signalling molecule CD44.
