MAPK/ERK pathway (also known as the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway) is a chain of proteins in the cell that communicates a signal from a receptor on the surface of the cell to the DNA in the nucleus of the cell. | MAPK/ERK pathway (also known as the Ras-Raf-MEK-ERK pathway) is a chain of proteins in the cell that communicates a signal from a receptor on the surface of the cell to the DNA in the nucleus of the cell. | ||

*[[Growth factor receptor-bound proteins]] (GRB) are adaptor proteins. GRBs contain SH2, Ras-associated (RA) and pleckstrin homology (PH) domains.
