Cell Signaling presents the principles and components that underlie all known signaling processes. It provides undergraduate and graduate students the conceptual tools needed to make sense of the dizzying array of pathways used by the cell to communicate. By emphasizing the common design principles, components, and logic that drives all signaling, the book develops a conceptual framework through which students can understand how thousands of diverse signaling proteins interact with each other in vast interconnected networks. The book first examines the common currencies of cellular information processing and the core components of the signaling machinery. It then shows how these ... Read more

Reviews for Cell Signaling
The authors pull off the difficult trick of providing both an effective introduction to the basics of cellular signal transduction and a comprehensible and remarkably comprehensive description of the details of specific signaling systems. Cell Signaling focuses solidly on biochemical and biophysical principles of signal transduction, but the work is so accessible and complete that it will provide even upper-level ... Read more
