FRS2K K and FRS2L L, two members of the FRS2 family of docking proteins, become tyrosine phosphorylated in response to ¢broblast growth factor (FGF) or nerve growth factor (NGF) stimulation. Tyrosine phosphorylated FRS2K K serves as a platform for the recruitment of multiple signaling proteins for activation of the Ras-mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling cascade. We report that Frs2K K and Frs2L L have distinct spatio-temporal expression patterns in mouse embryos. We further show that FRS2L L can compensate for the loss of FRS2K K for activation of MAP kinase when expressed in ¢broblasts from Frs2K K 3 3/ /3 3 mouse embryos. We propose that the FRS2 family proteins have distinct roles in vivo through activation of common signaling proteins including MAP kinase.
If CT colonography shows no abnormality, follow-up screening in 5 years is recommended. If CT colonography detects a lesion smaller than 5 mm, follow-up imaging in 3-5 years is recommended. If CT colonography detects a lesion measuring 6 mm or more, endoscopy and polypectomy should be offered unless contraindicated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
