Identification of the Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor As the c- met Proto-Oncogene Product
Abstract
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a plasminogen-like protein thought to be a humoral mediator of liver regeneration. A 145-kilodalton tyrosyl phosphoprotein observed in rapid response to HGF treatment of intact target cells was identified by immunoblot analysis as the β subunit of the c- met proto-oncogene product, a membrane-spanning tyrosine kinase. Covalent cross-linking of 125 I-labeled ligand to cellular proteins of appropriate size that were recognized by antibodies to c- met directly established the c- met product as the cell-surface receptor for HGF.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
