title: Proto-oncogenes in cell differentiation.
abstract: Proto-oncogene products may be multi-functional proteins with various roles in cell differentiation as well as cell proliferation. The molecular biology of the gene products of three well characterized proto-oncogenes (c-fos, c-myc and c-src) are described, and the roles of three other proto-oncogene products, involved in hormone and growth factor reception, are reviewed.
