Signaling Pathways for Translation

The articles in the present volume are by major contributors to our under­ standing of signaling pathways affecting protein synthesis. Since amino acids serve as precursors for proteins, one might expect that with­ holding an essential amino acid would inhibit the elongation phase.

Articolele din prezentul volum sunt de catre principalii contribuabili la intelegerea cailor de semnalizare care afecteaza sinteza proteinelor. Deoarece aminoacizii servesc ca precursori ai proteinelor, ne-am putea astepta ca, detinand un aminoacid esential, sa inhibam faza de alungire.
