Intracellular Signal Transduction: The JAK-STAT Pathway Paperback / softback
by Andrew F. Wilks, Ailsa G. Harpur
Part of the Molecular Biology Intelligence Unit series
Paperback / softback
Description
This book is the first one written about the JAK/STAT pathway.
The JAK (Janus Kinase) Protein tyrosine kinases are novel phosphotransferases absolutely required for cellular signalling downstream of non-catalytic cytokine receptors (amongst others).
These molecules are components in pathways utilising the STAT (Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription) transcription factors.
The basic components of the JAK/STAT pathway are covered in detail, and the centre piece of the book is a guided tour of the pathway itself.
An interesting addition to the book is the chapter on the use of Drosophila melanogaster as a genetic system to probe the pathway at the whole organism level.
The book is targeted to researchers who have an interest in intracellular signalling.
