Sigma-RBI Handbook of Receptor Classification and Signal Transduction

General description Over 100 research scientists collaborated with Sigma-RBI to compile new and up-to-date information on receptors and enzymes involved in cell signaling mechanisms. Information is detailed in over 90 separate entries covering a range of receptors, ion channels and key cell signaling enzymes. New entries include Adenylyl Cyclases, GABA Transporters, Glycine Transporters, Lysophosphatidic Acid (EDG) Receptors, Neurotrophin Receptors, Orexin Receptors, Peroxisome Proliferator Activated Receptors and Small Molecular Weight G Proteins. An overview is provided for each entry with a list of 12 key references and a chart summarizing the classification of the subject receptors, ion channels or enzymes and detailing key ligands.Partial - TOCNon-Peptide Receptors, Synthesis, Metabolism and TransportersAcetylcholine Receptors (Muscarinic)Acetylcholine Receptors (Nicotinic)Acetylcholine Synthesis and MetabolismAdenosine Receptorsα1-Adrenoceptorsα2-Adrenoceptorsβ-AdrenoceptorsBiogenic Amine TransportersPeptide Receptors and Peptide MetabolismAngiotensin ReceptorsBombesin ReceptorsBradykinin ReceptorsCalcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (and Related Peptides) ReceptorsChemokine ReceptorsCholecystokinin and Gastrin Receptors Corticotropin-Releasing Factor ReceptorsIon ChannelsCalcium ChannelsChloride ChannelsPotassium ChannelsSigma ReceptorsSodium ChannelsVanilloid ChannelsIntracellular Signaling Enzymes.ReceptorsAdenylyl CyclasesCalcium/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein KinasesCaspasesCyclic Nucleotide-Regulated Kinases Cyclic Nucleotide PhosphodiesterasesCyclin-Dependent KinasesG-Protein-Coupled Receptor KinasesHeterotrimeric G ProteinsProduct Index
