Hormones and Signaling focuses on the mechanism of gene regulation at the cellular level. It also covers the way hormones act to modulate gene regulation and animal development.
Includes information on:
Nuclear receptors, coactivators, and corepressors
Membrane receptors, kinases, and phosphorylation on cascades
Hormonal regulation of development
Calcium channels and neurotransmitters
Chromatin, transcription factors, and regulation of gene expression
JAK/STAT pathways
Hormone-regulated development and gene...

Cells must respond to a wide variety of signals. These include hormones, growth factors, morphogens, and environmental stress, as well as signals from internal regulators and checkpoints. A complex network of signal transduction pathways within the cell ensures that these signals are relayed to the correct molecular targets and that the cell responds appropriately. This textbook provides a comprehensive view of signal transduction, covering both the fundamental mechanisms involved and their roles in key biological processes. Taking a novel approach, it first lays out the basic principles...
