Emerging signaling pathways

June 17, 2020 | Duration: 55 mins.

The ability of cells to respond to their environments and communicate with other cells is essential for many biological processes, including cell division, neurotransmission, inflammation and more. In this virtual event, researchers discuss emerging concepts related to cell-signaling pathways, including estrogen regulation of nutrient sensing, G protein selection in acetylcholine signaling, and a transiently membrane-tethered regulator of calcium signaling.

The talks in this virtual event were originally programmed to take place as an in-person Spotlight Session at the 2020 ASBMB Annual Meeting.
