Fly Src: the Yin and Yang of tumor invasion and tumor suppression.

Abstract excerpt

The non-receptor tyrosine kinase Src is inactivated by the C-terminal Src kinase Csk. In a recent paper in Developmental Cell, Vidal et al. show that loss of Drosophila Csk (dCsk) in a large field of cells results in cell proliferation and disorganization of tissue architecture. In contrast, local inactivation of dCsk in a small field of cells results in loss of cells that are adjacent to normal tissue. This loss...
