Any cell that has a specufic receptor for an antigen or antibady or hormone or drug, or is the focus of contact by a virus

A molecule that binds specifically to another molecule, usually a larger one

A biochemical process that involves the addition of phasphate to an organic compound.

Receotir proteins embedded in the cell membrane and are meant to recognixe and bind to specific substances

Second messengers are molecules that relay signals recieved at receptors on the cell surgace and they serve to amplify

The amplification of signals, defined as an increase in the intensity of a signal through networks of intracellular reaction.

In cellular communication, the change in a specifica cellular activity brough about by a transduced signal from outside

A method of metabolic control n which the end product slows the process

A form of regulation in which an end product of a process speed s up that process

The generation of offspring from a single parent that occures without the fusion of gametes.

Cell cycle: A cyclically operation set of molecules in the eukaryotic cell that both triggers and coordinates with key events

The period in the cell cycle whn the cell is not dividing, during interphase, cellular metabolic activity is high

A process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells coventionally divided into five stages

An abnormal groeth of cells which tend to proliferate in an uncontrolled wat, and in some cases metastsized

A cellular protein that occurs in a cyclically fluctuating concentration and that plats an important role in regulating
