A study of a mutant form of receptor tyrosine kinase Tie-2 associated with venous malformations

The receptor tyrosine kinase Tie-2 is expressed predominantly in endothelial cells and is involved in blood vessel formation and maintenance. A missense mutation resulting in an R849 to W substitution in the kinase domain of Tie-2 has been reported to co-segregate with an autosomal dominantly inheri...
