HOW INFORMATION TRAVELS IN A CELL AND BETWEEN CELLS
Scientific Illustration by Nicole Rager Fuller / Sayo Studios, 2014
- The key components of genetics: chromosomes, DNA, RNA, and protein production.
- Cell Signaling and Drug Action
- Growth factors (the blue and purple spheres) bind to certain receiving proteins, called receptors, which relay the growth factor signals into the cell. These signals are further relayed through a large network of proteins by kinases, which eventually change the activity of genes within the nucleus.
- Cell signaling is the process used by cells to communicate with other cells. Signals (hormones, growth factors, calcium, nitric oxide, etc.) originate in a cell, leave, and then enter and are interpreted by another cell.
- The protein production process in an animal cell, from transcription and translation, to the folding of amino acids into functional proteins.
