Gene ontology (GO)Gene Ontology (GO) annotations describing the biological processes, molecular functions, and cellular components associated with a gene.
SHC-transforming protein 4 (Rai-like protein) (RaLP) (SHC-transforming protein D) (hShcD) (Src homology 2 domain-containing-transforming protein C4) (SH2 domain protein C4)
Protein function
Activates both Ras-dependent and Ras-independent migratory pathways in melanomas. Contributes to the early phases of agrin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CHRNB1.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Only expressed in melanomas. Weakly expressed in normal melanocytes and benign nevi. Highly expressed at the transition from radial growth phase to vertical growth phase and metastatic melanomas, when tumor cells acquire migratory comp
