1 By using phosphoamino acid analysis we found that Ser residues of c-Mpl were constitutively phosphorylated in receptor-bearing cells, levels that were increased following exposure of cells to TPO. Serine thrombopoietin Homo sapiens
2 To identify which residues were modified, and to determine the functional consequences of their phosphorylation, we generated a series of Ser to Ala mutations of a truncated c-Mpl receptor (T69) capable of supporting TPO-induced cell growth. Serine thrombopoietin Homo sapiens
3 Of the eight Ser within T69 we found that at least four are phosphorylated in TPO-stimulated cells. Serine thrombopoietin Homo sapiens
