Dissecting the mechanisms of mTOR activation. Supervisor: Dr. Zita
... Protein (APP) plays a key role in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Mutations in APP gene cause an early onset or familial form of AD. The aberrant processing of APP by secretases is thought to be a key driver in AD as familial forms of AD are also caused by mutations in gamma secretase. Despite its signifi ...

Signal transduction
Signal transduction occurs when an extracellular signaling molecule activates a specific receptor located on the cell surface or inside the cell. In turn, this receptor triggers a biochemical chain of events inside the cell, creating a response. Depending on the cell, the response alters the cell's metabolism, shape, gene expression, or ability to divide. The signal can be amplified at any step. Thus, one signaling molecule can cause many responses.
