All cells receive and respond to signals from their surroundings. • Signaling molecules that are secreted on the surface of one cell and bind to receptors expressed by the other cells. • The binding of most signaling molecules to their receptors initiates a series of intracellular reactions that regulate of the cell behaviour
this type of intercellular communication that electrical signals can be transformed into chemical signals. This type of communication will not be discussed in this book. In the following, the main emphasis will be on the intercellular com- munication via extracellular messengers – the hormones. 4. 1 Basics of Cell Signaling.
Essential to the survival of every cell is to monitor the environment and to respond to external stimuli. For most cells this includes appropriate communication with neighboring cells. Cell signaling (or signal transduction) involves: • Detection of the stimulus (in most cases a molecule secreted by another cell) on the surface of
1. XIV) Signaling. A) The need for Signaling in multicellular organisms. B) yeast need to signal to respond to various factors. C) Extracellular signaling molecules bind to receptors. 1) most bind to receptors on the cell surface. 2) some pass through membranes. 3) There are different types of extracellular signaling molecules.
process called cell signaling. Cell signaling makes it possible for cells to respond in an appropriate manner to a specific environmental stimulus. Cell signaling affects virtually every aspect of cell structure and function, which is one of the primary reasons that this chapter appears near the end of the book. On one hand, an.
General Principal of Cell Signaling. Signals that pass between cells are far simpler than the sorts of massages that humans ordinarily exchange. In a typical communication between cells, the signaling cell produces a particular type of signal molecule that is detected by the target cell. The target cell posses receptor proteins

Reception: A cell detects a signaling molecule from the outside of the cell. A signal is detected when the ligand binds to a receptor protein on the surface of the cell or inside.
