abbr. NAF (a term with multiple meanings). This biochemically uncharacterized factor is isolated from transformed human T-cells. It stimulates the intrinsic tyrosine-specific protein kinase of the neu oncogene, induces receptor dimerisation and internalization of ligand/receptor complexes (see also: Autophosphorylation). The factor also enhances the proliferation of cells expressing neu. NAF does not interact with the EGF receptor which is related closely to neu. At present it is not clear whether NAF is identical with or related to other proteins also interacting with neu, NDF (
