    摘要: The invention provides the identification of the presence of mutant ROS protein in human cancer. In some embodiments, the mutant ROS are FIG-ROS fusion proteins comprising part of the FIG protein fused to the kinase domain of the ROS kinase. In some embodiments, the mutant ROS is the overexpression of wild-type ROS in cancerous tissues (or tissues suspected of being cancerous) where, in normal tissue of that same tissue type, ROS is not expressed or is expressed at lower levels. The mutant ROS proteins of the invention are anticipated to drive the proliferation and survival of a subgroup of human cancers, particularly in cancers of the liver (including bile duct), pancreas, kidney, and testes. The invention therefore provides, in part, isolated polynucleotides and vectors encoding the disclosed mutant ROS polypeptides (e.g., a FIG-ROS(S) fusion polypeptide), probes for detecting it, isolated mutant polypeptides, recombinant polypeptides, and reagents for detecting the fusion and truncated polypeptides. The identification of the mutant ROS polypeptides enables new methods for determining the presence of these mutant ROS polypeptides in a biological sample, methods for screening for compounds that inhibit the proteins, and methods for inhibiting the progression of a cancer characterized by the mutant polynucleotides or polypeptides, which are also provided by the invention.

    摘要: In accordance with the invention, novel gene deletions and translocations involving chromosome 2 resulting in fusion proteins combining part of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) kinase with part of a secondary protein have now been identified in human solid tumors, e.g. non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Secondary proteins include Echinoderm Microtubule-Associated Protein-Like 4 (EML-4) and TRK-Fusion Gene (TFG). The EML4-ALK fusion protein, which retains ALK tyrosine kinase activity, was confirmed to drive the proliferation and survival of NSCLC characterized by this mutation. The invention therefore provides, in part, isolated polynucleotides and vectors encoding the disclosed mutant ALK kinase polypeptides, probes for detecting it, isolated mutant polypeptides, recombinant polypeptides, and reagents for detecting the fusion and truncated polypeptides. The disclosed identification of this new fusion protein enables new methods for determining the presence of these mutant ALK kinase polypeptides in a biological sample, methods for screening for compounds that inhibit the proteins, and methods for inhibiting the progression of a cancer characterized by the mutant polynucleotides or polypeptides, which are also provided by the invention.
