Biological function summary
Axl is important in mediating cell survival proliferation and migration. It functions as part of the TAM family of receptors which also includes Tyro3 and Mer. Axl often forms complexes with these receptors to facilitate efficient signaling. This interaction triggers phosphorylation events that activate downstream signaling proteins reinforcing its influence in cellular functions.
Pathways
Axl is deeply involved in the PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways which are central to cellular growth and survival. In these pathways Axl interacts closely with proteins like PI3K and Akt to regulate processes such as apoptosis and metabolism. Its interaction with these pathways places Axl as an important modulator of intracellular signaling cascades.
