Human Gene Set: GOBP_CELL_SURFACE_RECEPTOR_SIGNALING_PATHWAY_VIA_JAK_STAT


Standard name GOBP_CELL_SURFACE_RECEPTOR_SIGNALING_PATHWAY_VIA_JAK_STAT
Systematic name M11564
Brief description A cell surface receptor signaling pathway in which ligand binding causes the receptor to dimerize, bringing the receptor-associated JAKs into close proximity. The JAKs then phosphorylate and activate each other on tyrosine residues.This leads to the activation of associated STAT protein, causing the STATs to dissociate from the receptor, translocate to the nucleus. The pathway ends with regulation of target gene expression by STAT proteins. [PMID:12039028]
