Signaling Across the Plasma Membrane in Growth and Differentiation
BIOL 341 FA
The course will focus on the various cell surface receptors that serve as information transducers for signals from outside of the cell, such as growth factors and the extracellular matrix. We will also examine the
downstream
signaling cascades that eventually result in an altered pattern of gene expression.
MAJOR READINGS
Text - Molecular Biology of the Cell and original research articles
EXAMINATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS
Oral presentations and one research paper.
