Ras Protein and MAPK Pathway | Cell Signaling |Biology

After reading this article you will learn about the Ras protein and MAPK pathways that regulates various cellular activities. The gene family ras encodes small GTPases that are involved in cellular signal transduction. Ras the super-family of proteins regulates diverse cell behaviors such as cell growth, differ­entiation and survival. Since Ras communicates signals from outside the cell to the nucleus, [...]

Process of Apoptosis: With Diagram | Cell Death | Cell Signaling | Biology

After reading this article you will learn about the process of apoptosis which is characterised by chromatin condensation, with the help of suitable diagrams. Apoptosis, the programmed cell death is characterized by chromatin condensation and cell shrinkage in the early stage and then the nucleus and cytoplasm fragment, forming membrane-bound apoptotic bodies which can be engulfed by phagocytes. In contrast, [...]
