IRS1 is phosphorylated downstream of NPM-ALK fusions (Fujimoto et al, 1996). ALK-dependent IRS phosphorylation activates the MAP kinase signaling pathway and promotes cellular proliferation, but direct binding of a RAS GEF such as GRB2:SOS1 has not been shown (reviewed in Chiarle et al, 2008; Roskoski, 2013).
