The discovery of the Src oncogene was the first step on a long journey toward improved cancer chemotherapy. In this review, we explore Src and BCR-ABL, signal transduction, and recent advances in oncogene addiction and celebrate Hidesaboro Hanafusa and the many researchers who ushered in the age of target-directed therapy against tyrosine kinase oncoproteins.
