EML4/ALK Fusion Protein Variant 2

**Semantic type:** Amino Acid, Peptide, or Protein

**Definition:** A fusion protein (1310 aa, ~146 kDa) that is encoded by the EML4/ALK variant 2 fusion gene. This protein is comprised of the most of the echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 fused to the entire cytoplasmic domain of the ALK tyrosine kinase receptor protein including the tyrosine kinase domain.
