Of particular significance for alternatives test development is the existence of a finite number of
signal transduction pathways: less than 20 have been identified (Gerhart 1999).
For use in
signal transduction courses for undergraduate and graduate students in biology, biochemistry, bioinformatics, and pharmacology, as well as medical students, this text offers a unifying view of cell signaling that is based on the concept of protein interactions acting as sophisticated data processing networks that govern intracellular and extracellular communication.
Information from AxCell's
signal transduction database should allow us to learn more about this protein and accelerate drug discovery efforts," said Dr.
It has been suggested that arsenic-induced MAPK
signal transduction leads to activation of transcription factors such as activator protein-1 (AP-1) and nuclear factor-[kappa]B (NF[kappa]B), which in turn alters gene expression (Yang and Frenkel 2002).
AntexBiologics (Gaithersburg, MD; 301-590-0129) announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office has allowed another patent on Antex's Helicobacter pylori vaccine produced using the company's Nutriment
Signal Transduction platform technology.
Researchers in neurobiology, immunology, and related specialties provide a theoretical and practical foundation for scientists at any level who are interested in studying their role in
signal transduction at the cellular level.
It is for readers with basic knowledge in biochemistry or molecular biology, and can be used as a reference for students and researchers and as a companion for a course on regulation and
signal transduction.
