Term Name: | signal transduction by cis-phosphorylation |
---|---|
Synonyms: | signal transduction via a cis-phosphorylation event, signal transmission via a cis-phosphorylation event, signal transmission via auto-phosphorylation |
Definition: | A process in which the transfer of one or more phosphate groups by a kinase to a residue in the same kinase molecule transmits a signal. For example, ligand-binding can induce autophosphorylation of the activated receptor, creating binding sites for intracellular signaling molecules. |
