A transformation applied to functional programs to replacerecursion with iteration. A tail-recursive function can becompiled to an iterative loop where the recursive call becomesa jump back to the start and the parameters are held inregisters which are updated with new values each time aroundthe loop. See Iteration, Tail recursion optimisation.

Proto Oncogene Proteins c erbB 2
- cell surface protein-tyrosine kinase that is found to be overexpressed in significant number adenocarcinomas. It has extensive homology can heterodimerize EGF EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR), 3 receptor (RECEPTOR, 3) and the 4 receptor. Activation of erbB-2 receptor occurs during heterodimer formation with a ligand-bound erbB family members. EC 2.7.11.-.
