'Switch Off, Light On': Molecular Biologist Discovers New Control Mechanism In Cell Signaling

Tuesday, February 17, 2009 - 10:28 in Biology & Nature

Scientists have investigated a group of proteins which are important for cell division and therefore also for uncontrolled cell growth as occurring during cancerogenesis. Some experiments now lead them to an unexpected trace: they discovered an unknown regulation mechanism of the MEK enzymes, the key elements of the MAP signal transduction pathway.
