Mapping the key signaling molecules in biochemical pathways will be central to future drug discovery efforts. Signal transduction describes the process of conversion of external signals ...

This omega-6 fatty acid, arachidonic acid, is an important starting material for three different types of signaling molecules (Figure 3). Similar research found pathways that converted fat from ...

In the last several decades work on model organisms has revealed that small numbers of highly conserved signaling molecules are repeatedly utilized in various stages of development across species.

Ketone bodies are not just about energy. These metabolites are powerful signaling molecules that have profound effects on the proteome and protein quality control in the brain. Scientists, working in ...

Dysregulated cell signaling underlies various diseases, emphasizing the importance of understanding these pathways for ...

Professor Bhavik Patel Biological signalling molecules transmit information between cells. These signalling molecules are essential for coordinating vital responses in the functions of our bodies.
