Explore a 33-minute webinar presented by Dr. Paul J. Cullen, a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at the University at Buffalo. Delve into the fascinating world of microbial signaling pathways, focusing on Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathways in a model fungal system. Discover how organisms sense and respond to environmental changes through signal transduction pathways, and unravel the mystery of shared components in MAPK pathways. Learn about the importance of understanding signal specificity and its implications for diseases like cancer. Gain insights into Dr. Cullen's extensive research on bacterial and eukaryotic pathways, and explore the role of sensor proteins in these complex biological processes. After watching, registered Labroots members can earn PACE credits valid until September 18, 2026.
