The Raf/MEK/ERK pathway: new concepts of activation

Peyssonnaux, Carole, Eychène, Alain·2001·Biology of the Cell

Abstract

Summry— The Raf/MEK/ERK signaling was the first MAP kinase cascade to be characterized. It is probably one of the most well known signal transduction pathways among biologists because of its implication in a wide variety of cellular functions as diverse ‐and occasionally contradictory‐ as cell proliferation, cell‐cycle arrest, terminal differentiation and apoptosis. Discovery and understanding of this pathway have benefited from the combination of both genetic studies in worms and flies and biochemical studies in mammalian cells. However, ten years after, this field is still under debate and new molecular partners in the cascade continue to increase the complexity of its regulation. This review deals with the emergence of new concepts in the activation and regulation of the Raf/MEK/ERK module. In particular, the preponderant role of B‐Raf is underlined, and the role of novel regulators such as KSR is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
