Signal transduction is the term for the process which causes chemical and physical signals to be transmitted within a cell as a series of molecular events. The most common signal transduction ...

Many receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are rapidly endocytosed after ligand-induced activation, and then move through a series of endosomal compartments.

How cells sense and respond to chemical messages -- a process known as signal transduction -- is a fundamental force in biology, controlling key processes such as cell growth and immune response.

SMAX1 and SMXL2 function as repressor proteins in the KAR signaling pathway; however, the mechanism by which SMAX1 and SMXL2 regulate KAR signaling is still largely unknown. In this study ...

Researchers from the University of Illinois have discovered a key factor responsible for facilitating signal transduction in Cys-loop receptors, providing insight into a longstanding question in ...

One of the genetic processes by which they do this is transduction. In this article, we will discuss the mechanisms of bacterial transduction and how scientists can utilize it to manipulate bacterial ...
