MET and neoplasm: Given the importance of plasma membrane-associated MET in initiating its canonical signaling cascades, as well as the demonstrated non-canonical signaling from nuclear localized MET in different tumor cell types and in response to various environmental stimuli, we developed assay capability to measure levels of pY1235MET and total MET within the plasma membrane or nucleus; these assays enable future explorations of the biological and clinical relevance of MET subcellular localization patterns.
