Summary Introduction

To explain: The ability of various cell types to respond differently to the same signaling molecule by differential gene regulation.

Introduction: Cells respond to the changing environment such as light, water, nutrient that causes some change in cell and help in adapting in a new environment. A multicellular organism has various types of cells which communicate with each other with the help of signaling molecules.

What are two specific and different ways that neurotransmitter signaling at the membrane alters gene expression in the nucleus?
What is the difference in time between signaling pathways that affect protein function vs. pathways that affect gene expression?
If some cell-surface receptors, including Notch, can rapidly signal to the nucleus by activating latent transcription regulators at the plasma membrane, why do most cell- surface receptors use long, indirect signaling cascades to influence gene transcription in the nucleus?
