Protein kinases: six degrees of separation?

Curr Biol. 2000 Mar 9;10(5):R191-4. doi: 10.1016/s0960-9822(00)00349-3.

Abstract

Recent evidence for cross-talk between protein kinase B (PKB) and the Raf-1 and NF-kappaB signalling pathways has provided new hints to the complex roles that PKB may play in regulating gene transcription and also raised questions about where and when these targets are relevant.
