Abstract excerpt
In vertebrates, a tyrosine kinase activity has been identified as an integral component of growth factor receptors and the products of proto-oncogenes. Many of these receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) appear to play a key role in the regulation of cell growth. Recent analyses of several Drosophila genes encoding putative RTKs indicate that this class of proteins also plays an important role in decisions about cell...
