Abstract Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) are signalling proteins that are highly conserved among eukaryotes. They are involved in many biological pathways including cell differentiation and response to different stress situations. The MAPK cascade is composed of three signalling kinases, MAP3K, MAP2K and MAPK, which phosphorylate each other in a sequential manner. The different MAPK sub
A theoretical framework based on the process of how founders and members of a team make decisions during the establishment stage of their respective new ventures, is a relatively unexplored area in the entrepreneurship research field.
