Fig. 1. A model for ERK-mediated signal transduction. (A) If various extracellular stimuli elicit a single mode of ERK activity, the ERK activation should lead to a single cellular response. (B) If several regulators control the duration, magnitude and/or compartmentalization of ERK activity upon stimulation, the resulting different modes of ERK activity can regulate multiple cellular responses.
