Featured series: Short linear motifs - the unexplored frontier of the eukaryotic proteome

© Toby J Gibson <i>et al</i> 2015 Short linear motifs (SLiMs) guide the life of proteins from translation to destruction, directing their interactions, modification state, localisation and stability. The human proteome has been estimated to contain more than a hundred thousand – possibly up to a million – SLiM instances. Yet, to date, only a small fraction of the complete motif repertoire has been characterised and we still know relatively little about these elegantly simple protein interaction modules.

School sponsorship initiatives

Cell Communication and Signaling sponsors a primary school event promoting intercultural understanding (September 2014, Grundschule Kröllwitz, Halle, Germany).

Cell Communication and Signaling fund matches the fundraising effort by the Christian-Wolff-School in Halle (Saale), Germany, to support teacher education for the Gaiatreeschool in India.

Aims and scope

Cell Communication and Signaling is an open access journal that encompasses all basic and translational aspects of cellular communications and signaling pathways in normal and pathological conditions.

STS/CCS Honorary medal

In 2010 the Signal Transduction Society, together with Cell Communication and Signaling, introduced the STS/CCS Honorary Medal that celebrates the accomplishments of world leaders in cell signaling research.

Recipients of this Honorary Medal are so far:

Cell Communication and Signaling sponsors the 'International Lecture Series on Disease Biology and Molecular Medicine' which is organized by the Medical Faculty of the Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg with support from the City of Halle. The International Lecture Series on Disease Biology and Molecular Medicine showcases a wide range of biomedical research areas and fosters collaboration in the scientific community.

Other sponsorships
