Protein tyrosine kinase-7 (PTK7) is a transmembrane receptor, that belongs to the receptor protein tyrosine kinase (RTKs) family. It has an extracellular immunoglobulin-like domain, a transmembrane domain and an inert tyrosine kinase-like domain. PTK7 is located on human chromosome 6p21.
Immunogen
PTK7 antibody was raised against a 18 amino acid peptide from near the carboxy terminus of human PTK7.
Application
Anti-PTK7 antibody has been used in immunohistochemistry.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Protein tyrosine kinase-7 (PTK7) stimulates cell proliferation and invasion. It plays a vital role embryonic development and disease. PTK7 controls radioresistance with the help of nuclear factor-κ B in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Lung cancer remains the most common cause of cancer-related death worldwide and it continues to lack effective treatment. The increasingly large and diverse public databases of lung cancer gene expression constitute a rich source of candidate oncogenic drivers and therapeutic
