Explore this paper's citation graph

Summary

The Jak-STAT pathway is the focus of this chapter, a novel mechanism in which cytosolic latent transcription factors, known as signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs), are tyrosine phosphorylated by Janus family tyrosin kinases (Jaks), allowing STAT protein dimerization and nuclear translocation.
