ExpSup: Pragmin Overexpression Induces Morphological Changes in AGS Cell Line

Note: For more detailed and accurate information, please read the cited reference.

• Pragmin overexpression causes morphological changes in AGS cell line (Safari et al., 2011) 
  • Experiment details: 
    • Cell line: AGS cell line transiently expressing Myc-tagged Pragmin (Rat cDNA)
    • Method: Phase contrast microscopy.

• Explanation: 
  • Changes in morphology was associated with SFK activation (Safari et al., 2011)
