Description:Hormones and Signaling focuses on the mechanism of gene regulation at the cellular level. It also covers the way hormones act to modulate gene regulation and animal development. Key Features* Includes information on:* Nuclear receptors, coactivators, and corepressors* Membrane receptors, kinases, and phosphorylation on cascades* Hormonal regulation of development* Calcium channels and neurotransmitters* Chromatin, transcription factors, and regulation of gene expression* JAK/STAT pathways* Hormone-regulated development and gene "knock-out"
