Targil – Signal transduction
We have seen many developmentally regulative processes
(we’ll see many more)
**cells need information from their environment
How is that information received and transduced?
Received
Transduced
Communication between cells –
comprehensively: 3 kinds of signal sources
OTHER SUB-CLASS names for soluble ligand signals:
(Further acting – through the bloodstream – endocrine)
(Abutting cells – juxtacrine)
(Cell release then re-uptake – autocrine)
Protein kinases I: S/T kinases
Prot. kinases I: S/T kinase ligands
HOMOLOGS
Phylogenetic tree Branches arise from:
gene duplications
-paralogs
speciation
-orthologs
Protein kinases II:
T(Y)K/RTK signaling
II. RTK signaling
II. RTK signaling
II. RTK signaling
MAPKKK
MAPKK
MAPK
II. RTK signaling
II. RTK signaling
II. RTK signaling
IIa. YK signal: Jak mediated signaling
IIa. YK signal: Jak mediated signaling
Hedgehog signaling pathway
Wnt (wg) signaling pathway
Notch signaling pathway
Notch signaling pathway
Stochastic
Process of
Selection
Conserved apoptosis pathway
NFkappaB pathway
-here, interfacing proteolysis pathway
Similar to (but not homologous to):
Human blood clotting cascade
– Also a series of (extracellular)
proteolytic cleavages
NFkappaB pathway
-innate immunity in both. ALSO D/V in Dros.
Steroid hormone pathway
-no need for cell surface receptor
Models of the Hippo pathway in Drosophila and mammals.
