Conversion of graded phosphorylation into switch-like nuclear translocation via autoregulatory mechanisms in ERK signalling

While ERK signalling can produce switch-like cell behaviour, phosphorylation of ERK increases linearly with extracellular signals. Here, the authors solve this seeming contradiction by showing that nuclear translocation of ERK behaves in a switch-like manner and is controlled by ERK activity.
