Journal ArticleDOI

Raf Family Kinases: Old Dogs Have Learned New Tricks

TL;DR: The regulation of Raf proteins and their role in cancer are discussed, with special focus on the interacting proteins that modulate Raf signaling, and new kinase-independent roles for Raf proteins have emerged.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Library of Integrated Network-Based Cellular Signatures NIH Program: System-Level Cataloging of Human Cells Response to Perturbations

Alexandra B Keenan, +107 more

TL;DR: The LINCS program focuses on cellular physiology shared among tissues and cell types relevant to an array of diseases, including cancer, heart disease, and neurodegenerative disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell fate decisions are specified by the dynamic ERK interactome

TL;DR: Assessing dynamic changes in ERK-interacting proteins that specifically occur under differentiation conditions confirmed that ERK dynamics and differentiation are regulated by distributed control mechanisms rather than by a single master switch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ligand‐dependent responses of the ErbB signaling network: experimental and modeling analyses

TL;DR: This work combines traditional experiments with computational modeling, building a model that describes how stimulation of all four ErbB receptors with epidermal growth factor and heregulin leads to activation of two critical downstream proteins, extracellular‐signal‐regulated kinase (ERK) and Akt.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Mammalian MAPK/ERK Pathway Exhibits Properties of a Negative Feedback Amplifier

TL;DR: It is shown that the three-tiered kinase amplifier module combined with negative feedback recapitulates the design principles of a negative feedback amplifier (NFA), which is used in electronic circuits to confer robustness, output stabilization, and linearization of nonlinear signal amplification.
