Cellular regulation of the Notch signaling pathway by Notch-interacting proteins
(Åbo Akademi University, 25.09.2020)The Notch signaling mechanism is a crucial regulator of stem cells during development and tissue regeneration. Transcriptional activation of Notch target genes requires cleavage of the Notch receptor in response to ligand ... -
Cellular responses to stress and kinase signaling activation : apoptosis and differentiation
(Åbo Akademi - Åbo Akademi University, 13.08.2013)Stress signals are often sensed by membrane-bound proteins which translate signals into the chemical modification of molecules, most notably protein kinases. These kinases, in turn, transmit the decoded message through a ... -
