Abstract excerpt
Protein kinases may function more like variable rheostats rather than two-state switches. However, we lack approaches to properly analyze this aspect of kinase-dependent regulation. To address this, we develop a strategy in which a kinase inhibitor is identified using genetics-based screens, kinase mutations that confer resistance are characterized, and dose-dependent responses of isogenic drug-sensitive and...
