Recepteur d'origine nantais proto-oncogene tyrosine-protein kinase (RON)

Target
RON
Molecular classification
Receptor, Receptor Tyrosine Kinase, MET proto-oncogene family
01

Overview

RON (Recepteur d'origine nantais) is a receptor tyrosine kinase belonging to the MET proto-oncogene family. It is activated by Macrophage-Stimulating Protein (MSP) and plays a role in cell migration, invasion, inflammation, and embryonic development. Aberrant overexpression or activation of RON is implicated in various cancers, making it a target for anti-cancer drug development.
