The mammalian ultraviolet response is triggered by activation of src tyrosine kinases

Exposure of mammalian cells to DNA-damaging agents induces the ultraviolet (UV) response, involving transcription factor AP-1, composed of Jun and Fos proteins. We investigated the mechanism by which UV irradiation induces the c- jun gene. The earliest detectable step was activation of Src tyrosine...
