9780471932499: Cell Signalling (Paper)

Synopsis

This is the first comprehensive and detailed textbook to focus on signal transduction. Covering a wide variety of mechanisms in an unusually well-balanced manner, Noel Morgan illustrates both the diversity and uniformity that exist between different types of cell signaling systems, provides detailed analyses of a large number of processes, and shows how different systems are integrated within the cell to generate a coordinated response to extracellular messages. He also demonstrates the fundamental role of transduction processes in the regulation of cell growth, metabolic activity, secretion, and other aspects of cell activation. Ideal as a primary text for senior undergraduate and graduate courses in neurosciences and cell signalling, the work can also supplement basic courses in cell biology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and endocrinology. Because CELL SIGNALLING analyzes the experimental literature to show how our present understanding of transduction mechanisms developed, researchers unfamiliar with this line of investigation will also find the book of value.
