Signalspecificitet
Signalspecificitet refers to the characteristic of a biological signal that allows it to be recognized and acted upon by a specific receptor or target molecule. This specificity is crucial for the precise communication and coordination of cellular processes within an organism. Without signalspecificitet, a cell would be overwhelmed by a cacophony of signals, unable to differentiate between those that are important for its survival and function and those that are not.
The molecular basis for signalspecificitet often lies in the complementary shapes and chemical properties of the
The degree of signalspecificitet can vary. Some receptors bind to a single signaling molecule with very high
