Src family protein tyrosine kinases: cooperating with growth factor and adhesion signaling pathways

Curr Opin Cell Biol. 1997 Apr;9(2):187-92. doi: 10.1016/s0955-0674(97)80062-2.

Abstract

The Src family of protein tyrosine kinases functionally interacts with several receptor and nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases. Recent developments show that Src family kinases may cooperate with the epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptors and the integrin-linked focal adhesion kinase to diversify signals that regulate growth and cell movement.
