Description
BACKGROUND Discoidin domain receptors (DDRs) are a subfamily of transmembrane collagen-binding receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK). DDRs are distinguished from other RTKs by a discoidin domain in their extracellular region, which functions as a lectin in the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum. There are two genes that code for DDRs in humans, DDR1 and DDR2. Each DDR contains an extracellular region containing the ligand-binding discoidin domain, a stalk region, and a single transmembrane region, as well as a cytoplasmic domain consisting of a juxtamembrane region and a tyrosine kinase domain.1 Expression of DDR1 protein is restricted to epithelial cells, particularly in the kidney, lung, gastrointestinal tract, and brain. Aberrant expression and signaling of DDR1 proteins have been implicated in several human diseases linked to accelerated matrix degradation and remodeling, including tumor invasion, atherosclerosis, and liver fibrosis.2 The activation and autophosphorylation of DDR1 are achieved by treatment of cells with triple-helical collagens.3 DDR1 has been found to play a role in cell attachment, migration, cell survival and proliferation.
