Cancer Cell Membrane Proteins

Molecular classification
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase, G-protein Coupled Receptor, Integrin, Transporter, ABC Transporter, Cell Adhesion Molecule, Enzyme, Antigen
01

Overview

Cancer cell membrane proteins are a diverse group of proteins expressed on the surface of cancer cells. They play critical roles in various aspects of cancer biology, including signal transduction, cell adhesion, migration, nutrient transport, drug resistance, and immune evasion. Their accessibility makes them attractive therapeutic targets and biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis.
