TTK Antibody, FITC conjugated

1. Treatment of a xenograft model of a CTNNB1-mutant cell line with the TTK inhibitor NTRC 0066-0 resulted in complete inhibition of tumor growth. Mutations in CTNNB1 are relatively common in endometrial cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma, which are known to express high levels of TTK. This suggests that mutant CTNNB1 could serve as a prognostic drug response biomarker, enabling the identification of patients most likely to respond to TTK inhibition. PMID: 28751540
2. Lentiviral shRNA knockdown of TTK in several human liver cancer cell lines demonstrated that TTK promotes cell growth, spreading, and protects against senescence and autophagy. In an animal model, knockdown of TTK effectively inhibited the growth of human HCC xenografts. PMID: 27618777
3. TTK expression in gallbladder cancer (GBC) is lower than in normal tissues. Higher levels of TTK expression in GBC are associated with longer overall survival. PMID: 28883705
4. TTK is a favorable prognostic biomarker associated with survival in patients with triple-negative breast cancer. PMID: 27833085
5. Mps1 promotes checkpoint activation through a sequential phosphorylation cascade involving Knl1, Bub1, and Mad1. This multi-target phosphorylation cascade makes the checkpoint highly responsive to Mps1 and to kinetochore-microtubule attachment. PMID: 28072388

11. Studies of crystal structures of recombinant wild-type and mutant MPS1 with various protein kinase inhibitors bound to the ATP-binding pocket of the catalytic domain suggest that point mutations in the catalytic domain of MPS1 (C604Y and C604W) give rise to enzymes that retain catalytic activity but are resistant to protein kinase inhibitors. PMID: 28726638
12. Mps1 plays a critical role in preventing aneuploidy-induced cell death in pancreatic cancer. PMID: 28380042
13. HLF-mediated miR-132 directly suppresses TTK expression, thus exerting inhibitory effects on cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, and radioresistance. PMID: 27522003

16. Cetn3 inhibits Mps1 autophosphorylation at Thr-676, a known site of T-loop autoactivation, and interferes with Mps1-dependent phosphorylation of Cetn2. Overexpression of Cetn3 attenuates the incorporation of Cetn2 into centrioles and centrosome reduplication, while depletion of Cetn3 generates extra centrioles. PMID: 26354417

23. High Mps1 expression, both at mRNA and protein levels, was found to be associated with high tumor grade, high Ki67 expression, and worse survival, particularly in Triple Negative Breast Cancer. PMID: 25731686
24. Data show five point mutations in the kinase domain of mitotic checkpoint kinase MPS1 that confer resistance against multiple inhibitors. PMID: 26202014
25. The N-terminal of Mps1 was identified to have high sequence similarity to the classic NES, a fusion of this motif with EGFP results in dramatic exclusion of the fusion protein from the nucleus. PMID: 25886724
26. TTK was up-regulated in HCC specimens. Overexpression of TTK promoted cell proliferation, anchor-dependent colony formation and resistance to sorafenib of HCC cells. PMID: 24905462

28. The checkpoint protein kinase monopolar spindle 1 (Mps1) directly bound to Ndc80C through two independent interactions. PMID: 26068854
29. The amino-terminal localization module of the spindle assembly checkpoint protein kinase MPS1 directly interacts with the HEC1 (highly expressed in cancer 1) calponin homology domain in the NDC80 (nuclear division cycle 80) kinetochore complex in vitro, in a phosphorylation-dependent manner.
