Cell signaling
Abstract
This review explores advances in our understanding of dynamicism in cellular signaling. Areas highlighted include the role of stochasticity in producing diversity in analogous signaling circumstances; population desynchronization's effect in masking newly appreciated repetitive bursts in protein phosphorylation and messenger RNA production; double-positive feedback interactions and their ability to synchronize multiple signal transduction pathways; scaffolding proteins control over signaling feedback; and frequency-responsive transcriptional regulation as an example of dynamicism in signaling.
