The Jak-Stat Pathway: Cytokine Signalling from the Receptor to the Nucleus
1 Jan 1999
Abstract excerpt
The Jak-STAT pathway was originally discovered through the study of interferon induced intracellular signal transduction. Meanwhile, a large number of cytokines, hormones and growth factors have been found to activate Jaks and STATs. Jaks (Janus Kinases) are a unique class of tyrosine kinases that associate with cytokine receptors. Upon ligand binding, they activate members of the Signal Transducers and...
