In biology, membrane-spanning proteins are responsible for the transmission of chemical signals across membranes, and signal transduction is often associated with an amplified signalling cascade.

Membrane proteins are heavily involved in a variety of cellular processes such as signal transduction, membrane translocation, cell adhesion, and many more, and therefore are of great interest ...

Zhang's team utilized the rapid phospho-shift of OsCTR2, a negative regulator of rice ethylene signaling, in response to ethylene as a sensitive readout for signal activation.

Mitochondria are primarily known as the powerhouse of the cell. However, these cellular organelles are required not only for providing energy: Professor Konstanze Winklhofer and her group at the ...

Upon binding of ligand to various membrane growth factor receptors, the corresponding receptor tyrosine kinases activate PI3K, which results in recruitment of PI3K to the cell membrane and production ...

Signal transduction across membranes through regulated intramembrane proteolysis is conserved throughout all domains of life. In the SREBP pathway of human cells, the membrane-bound SREBP ...
