The ins and outs of Raf kinases
Abstract
Raf kinases are signal-integrating enzymes that have the ability to switch tyrosine kinase signalling to serine/threonine phosphorylation and connect growth factor receptors with transcription factors. The connection involves a cascade of protein kinases that is essential for cellular proliferation and differentiation of species ranging from worms to humans. This cascade also mediates transformation by most oncogenes.
