BIOL341
Signaling Across the Plasma Membrane in Growth and Differentiation

Next Offered in 9899 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.
