Abstract excerpt
The proto-oncogene c-Src has been implicated in the development and progression of a number of human cancers including those of colon and breast. Accumulating evidence indicates that activated alleles of Src may induce cell transformation through Ras-ERK-dependent and -independent pathways. Here we show that Rac1 activity is strongly elevated in Src-transformed cells and that this small G protein is a critical...
