Examples in Context

  1. Genistein is a high specific and noncompetitive inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor tyramine kinase domain ( EGFR-TK ).
  2. The next step was to pinpoint how one EGFR kinase domain would switch on another.
  3. HHMI researchers have now learned that this pairing causes a physical change in the shape of the kinase domain.
  4. They found that the asymmetric activation of one EGFR kinase domain by another is analogous to the activation of cyclin-dependent kinase ( CDK ) by cyclin, which are involved in regulating cell growth.
  5. Novel Oncogene with Kinase-domain ( NOK ) is a novel tumor-related gene, coding receptor like protein with a kinase domain.
