Tyrosine Phosphorylation/Dephosphorylation and Downstream Signalling

Herausgegeben von Heilmeyer, Ludwig M.G.Jr.

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Nearly every cellular activity, such as cell growth,
proliferation, protein synthesis, and nuclear division, is
regulated by protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation on
tyrosine residues as initiation events.Synchronization
occurs through interaction of protein tyrosine kinases and
phosphatases.
This book unveils signal pathways that connect
extracellular signals with changes of phosphorylation state
of target proteins allowing coordinated and integrated
modulation of mitogenic signalling. Specifically, cascades
involving protein serine/threonine kinases and connections
to phosphoinositides derived second messengers are
discussed.
