Abstract excerpt
Tyrosine kinases are key enzymes that play critical roles in growth signaling, the abnormal activation of which is associated with various human cancers. Activation of tyrosine kinases is mediated by tyrosine phosphorylation in the activation-loop, which transforms the catalytic domain to the active state conformation. Cancer mutations are supposed to transform the conformation of the catalytic domain into the...
