Activation of c-MET receptor tyrosine kinase involves hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and glycosaminoglycans, but the molecular mechanism is still under debate. Here, the authors present cryoEM structures of c-MET bound to two HGF splice variants and heparin, revealing the structural basis for c-MET activation.
