Signal Transduction Journals

Signal transduction is also known as cell signaling. It is the transmission of molecular signals from a cell's exterior to its interior. Signal transduction is responsible for many processes -cell growth, proliferation, healing, differentiation, metabolism, and communication. Signal transduction pathways are the process by which a physical or chemical signal is transmitted through a cell as a series of molecular events, mainly protein phosphorylation catalysed by protein kinases, which eventually results in a cellular response. The intracellular signaling transduction is highly receptor-specific, thus maintaining the specificity of the incoming signal inside the cell. Signal transduction pathways intensify the incoming signal by a signaling cascade using a network of enzymes that act on one another in specific ways to finally generate a precise and appropriate physiological response by the cell. A ligand-gated ion channel, upon binding with a ligand, changes conformation to open a channel in the cell membrane through which ions relaying signals can pass.
