Signal Transduction: Principles, Pathways, and Processes

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 ...
