Regulation of Organelle and Cell Compartment Signaling

Ralph A. Bradshaw is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of California, Irvine. Prior to that he was on the faculty of the Department of Biological Chemistry, Washington University, and Professor and Chair of the Department of Biological Chemistry, University of California Irvine. He presently is Professor of Pharmacology at the University of California, San Diego. He served as president of FASEB, was the founding president of the Protein Society and was the treasurer of the ASBMB. He was the founding editor of Molecular and Cellular Proteomics. His research has focused on protein chemistry and proteomics, with emphasis on the structure and function of growth factors and their receptors, particularly nerve growth factor and fibroblast growth factor, and the involvement of receptor tyrosine kinases in cell signaling. He has also studied the role of proteolytic processing and N-terminal modification in protein stability and turnover. Edward A. Dennis is Distinguished Professor and former Chair of the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and Professor in the Department of Pharmacology in the School of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego. He is also Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Lipid Research.

"In order to keep researchers and students up to date on developments in the field, 55 articles were selected and reprinted from the 2008 second edition of the ‘Handbook of Cell Signaling’ on the transcriptional regulation and the function of nuclei and other subcellular organelles in signaling activities. After an overview, they cover nuclear signaling in transcription, chromatic remodeling, and stress response; signaling to and from intracellular compartments; and cell cycle and cell death signaling. This is one of four volumes of such reprints, called the Cell Signaling Collection."--Reference and Research Book News
