Epidermal growth factor receptor activation in glioblastoma through novel missense mutations in the extracellular domain

Protein tyrosine kinases are important regulators of cellular homeostasis with tightly controlled catalytic activity. Mutations in kinase-encoding genes can relieve the autoinhibitory constraints on kinase activity, can promote malignant transformation, and appear to be a major determinant of respon...
