The epidermal growth factor receptor family as a central element for cellular signal transduction and diversification.
1 Mar 2001
Abstract excerpt
Homeostasis of multicellular organisms is critically dependent on the correct interpretation of the plethora of signals which cells are exposed to during their lifespan. Various soluble factors regulate the activation state of cellular receptors which are coupled to a complex signal transduction network that ultimately generates signals defining the required biological response. The epidermal growth factor...
