Effect of portacaval anastomosis on glutamine synthetase activities in liver, brain, and skeletal muscle.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation by protein tyrosine kinases and phosphatases (PTPs), respectively, play crucial roles in cellular signal transduction. Protein phosphatase non-receptor type 11 (PTPN11) is a positive signaling PTP that activates RAS and ERK signaling. Also, the PTPN11 binds with...
