Advancing our understanding of the EGFR-KRas-mediated activation of small G proteins RalA/B

  Research Group: Molecular & Cell Biology
Growth factor signalling is fundamental to cell proliferation and differentiation. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) signalling exemplifies this process by activating the small GTPase KRas at the plasma membrane (PM), where KRas serves as a central signalling hub that activates multiple effectors, including BRAF and Rgl2.
