autophosphorylation sites of growth factor receptors. This small protein | autophosphorylation sites of growth factor receptors. This small protein is essential for multiple cellular functions such as embryonic development and cell proliferation. Moreover, Grb2 can be found in the cytosol, the nucleus and the plasmic membrane. | ||
