These Second  Messengers control the action of many protein kinases and protein  phosphatases and so lead to cellular responses. Although the  biochemical basis of the transduction of signals in the main  signalling systems in eukaryotic cells is probably largely known,  intensified research is ongoing in the following areas: the discovery  of specific substrates for many protein kinases, elucidation of the  biological significance of the differential tissue expression and  heterogeneity of many signalling proteins, and the unravelling of  diverse interactions (such as signal potentiation, synergism,  antagonism and neuronal co-transmission) between signalling systems.  As knowledge from such studies accumulates, it is becoming clear that  the `cross talk' interactions between signalling systems are important  features of dynamic cell regulation. \u003cbr\u003e  This volume is designed to summarize some aspects of the current work  on various Second Messenger Systems and the integration of signals  with respect to plasma membrane receptors. Second Messenger generation  and degradation, protein kinase and phosphatase, cell cycle control,  and cellular learning and memory.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1997-09-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792336631\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-2015-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 279cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 325\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44341171191948,"sku":"9780792336631","price":296.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792336631.jpg?v=1771521474","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792336631","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
