Descriptions

ALK is a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the development of several human cancers. Its autoinhibition is mediated by an intramolecular interaction between β-sheet (β1' and β2') and DFG helix in an activation loop, which occludes the substrate binding site. The activation loop contains phosphorylation sites, which need to be phosphorylated for ALK activation.

2 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
plasma membrane The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
receptor complex Any protein complex that undergoes combination with a hormone, neurotransmitter, drug or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell function.

2 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity Combining with a signal and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity by catalysis of the reaction

12 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
developmental pigmentation The developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism, tissue or cell.
iridophore differentiation The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires the specialized features of an iridophore. Iridophores are pigment cells derived from the neural crest. They contain guanidine or other purine crystals deposited in stacks called reflecting platets or iridisomes. This gives them a silver, gold, or iridescent appearance.
maintenance of cell number Any process by which the numbers of cells of a particular type or in a tissue are maintained.
melanocyte differentiation The process in which a relatively unspecialized cell acquires specialized features of a melanocyte.
melanocyte migration The orderly movement of melanocytes from one site to another, often during the development of a multicellular organism. A melanocyte is a pigment cell derived from the neural crest. It contains melanin-filled pigment granules, which give a brown to black appearance.
phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.
pigment cell development The process whose specific outcome is the progression of a pigment cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a pigment cell fate.
pigmentation The accumulation of pigment in an organism, tissue or cell, either by increased deposition or by increased number of cells.
regulation of cell population proliferation Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cell proliferation.
regulation of developmental pigmentation Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the developmental process that results in the deposition of coloring matter in an organism.
regulation of neuron differentiation Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of neuron differentiation.
transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase signaling pathway The series of molecular signals initiated by an extracellular ligand binding to a receptor on the surface of the target cell where the receptor possesses tyrosine kinase activity, and ending with the regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription.
