Activation by and desensitization to signals originating from the
environment is common in all organisms, ranging from prokaryotes to
higher eukaryotes. Recently, a number of novel mechanisms involved
in activation and desensitization have been elucidated. The
similarities of the molecular mechanisms of activation and
desensitization in the various systems are striking. In the first
book (1987) on this topic, the functional and structural
similarities of the various mechanisms to attenuate the effect of
an outward signal were emphasized. Justification to have a second
book three years later is the explosive growth of information in
the field. More components involved in signal transfer have been
discovered and also that several more G-proteins appear to play a
role during this process. The interest in signal attenuation
concurs with these developments. The emphasis in this book is on
the common signal transfer elements responsible for activation and
desensitization in animals, plants and microorganisms.
