Background
GAS6 (Growth Arrest Specific gene 6) is a vitamin K-dependent ligand of the TAM (Tyro3, Axl and MerTK) RTK family. It has an N-terminal Gla domain containing multiple Asp gamma-carboxylation sites, followed by four EGF repeats and two C-terminal LG domains. Vitamin K mediates multiple gamma-carboxylations of glutamic acid residues in the GAS6 Gla domain. These modifications are required for GAS6 to to activate its receptor (1,2). The two C-terminal LG (SHBG) domains form a V-shaped structure and provide a direct binding site for receptor interaction. Among the TAM family members, GAS6 has high affinity for Axl and low affinity for Tyro3 and MerTK. Ligand/receptor interaction activates multiple downstream signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT, STAT/SOCS, PLC/FAK, and Grb2/RAS, and promotes cell survival, proliferation, migration and differentiation (3,4). GAS6 has been implicated in cancer development and immune-related disorders (inflammation and multiple sclerosis), and as such has been identified as a potential therapeutic target (3-6).
