## Abstract The mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MAPKs) are activated by extracellular signals, and translocate to the nucleus where they modulate transcription. Integrin‐mediated cell adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins is required for efficient transmission of MAPK‐based signals ini

## Abstract Given its broad influence over numerous cell functions, redesigning the mitogen‐activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling module would offer a powerful means to engineer cell behavior. Early challenges include identifying quantitative module features most relevant to biological function
Binding of growth factors to specific cell surface receptors is the first step in initiating cell signaling cascades that ultimately result in diverse activities such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. Dimerization and phosphorylation of tyrosine kinase transmembrane receptors is the
## Abstract Specificity in signal transduction can be achieved through scaffolds, anchors, and adapters that assemble generic signal transduction components in specific combinations and locations. MEK Partner‐1 (MP1) was identified as a potential “scaffold” protein for the mammalian extracellular s
## Abstract In the budding yeast, __Saccharomyces cerevisiae__, four separate but structurally related mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation pathways are known. The best understood of these regulates mating. Pheromone binding to receptor informs cells of the proximity of a mating partn
