  • Tyrosine kinases are a group of enzymes that catalyze phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in proteins, and they play an important role in the cellular signal transduction. Meanwhile, they involve in regulation, signal transmission and development of normal cells, and they are also closely related to proliferation, differentiation, migration and apoptosis of tumour cells. Many receptor tyrosine kinases are correlated with the formation of tumours, and according to the different structures of the extracellular domain, they can be classified as epidermal growth factor receptor, platelet-derived growth factor receptor, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, fibroblast growth factor receptor and so on.
