The Molecular Genetics of Lung Cancer describes how the new...

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Control of Metabolism

Springer, 2013

Although phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine is relatively rare compared to phosphorylation on serine or threonine residues, the past two decades of research into PTP function have led to a great appreciation of the critical role PTPs have in regulating basic cellular processes. Among these important roles is the regulation of cellular...

Regulation of Carcinogenesis, Angiogenesis and Metastasis by the Proprotein Convertases (PC's): A New Potential Strategy in Cancer Therapy

Springer, 2006

Convertases are widely expressed activating enzymes involved in various physiological and pathological processes. This book provides detailed and updated information on the role of these molecules in cancer.
