Signal transduction: Wnt signalling shows its versatility
Signalling between cells plays a major role in the elaboration of cell types and tissues, triggering cell fate decisions that are critical in development. A number of pathways have been identified that appear time and again in different contexts. One good example is the pathway that first came to light with the identification of wingless mutant fruitflies. The Drosophila Wingless protein is now...
متن کاملSignal transduction in hair cells and its regulation by calcium
Ca2+ plays a pivotal role in the regulation of hair cell function. From ,mechanoelectrical transduction at the cell's apex to the release of neurotransmitter at its base, Ca*+ acts continuously to either effect or affect diverse cellular processes. The ability of Ca'+ to perform its various local tasks rests simply on the steep gradients in the activity of Ca*+ that are encountered in the vicin...
متن کاملProtein phosphorylation and its role in archaeal signal transduction
Reversible protein phosphorylation is the main mechanism of signal transduction that enables cells to rapidly respond to environmental changes by controlling the functional properties of proteins in response to external stimuli. However, whereas signal transduction is well studied in Eukaryotes and Bacteria, the knowledge in Archaea is still rather scarce. Archaea are special with regard to pro...
متن کاملStructure and Signal Transduction
The band 4.1 domain was first identified in the red blood cell protein band 4.1, and subsequently in ezrin, radixin, and moesin (ERM proteins) and other proteins, including tumor suppressor merlin/schwannomin, talin, unconventional myosins VIHa and X, and protein tyrosine phosphatases. Recently, the presence of a structurally related domain has been demonstrated in the N-terminal region of two ...
متن کاملSignal transduction.
This issue of Breast Disease focuses on the subject of signal transduction and its role in the pathogenesis and progression of human breast cancer. Within the past 10 years, the explosion in our knowledge of these processes has significantly altered our understanding of breast cancer, and resulted in the first receptor-based therapies. This issue examines a variety of relevant signaling pathway...
