Abstract excerpt
Receptor and nonreceptor tyrosine kinases are enzymes that play important roles in regulating signal transduction pathways in a variety of normal cellular process and in many pathological conditions. Ordered phosphorylation is required for receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) activation, a process mediated by transient dimer formation of the kinase domains. This process is triggered by the tyrosine phosphorylation in...
