Abstract

In multicellular organisms there must be stringent control over the processes of cellular proliferation and differentiation. Thus sophisticated networks of regulatory molecules have evolved to sense and transmit signals within and between normal cells. From the study of growth factor receptors and the polypeptide products of particular oncogenes, it appears that protein tyrosine kinases, their substrates and phosphatase counterparts are essential components of some of these regulatory pathways.
