Ribosomal Protein S6 Phosphorylation and Function during Late Gestation Liver Development in the Rat
1 Nov 2001
Abstract excerpt
The phosphorylation of ribosomal protein S6 is thought to be required for biosynthesis of the cell's translational apparatus, a critical component of cell growth and proliferation. We have studied the signal transduction pathways involved in hepatic S6 phosphorylation during late gestation in the rat. This is a period during which hepatocytes show a high rate of proliferation that is, at least in part,...
