Biological - Clocks Three questions
1. How does it work
2. How does it synchronize
3. How does it translate to activity

Signal Transduction
The Yeast system
Scaffold proteins
Mediating recruitment Improve efficiency of signal
transfer. Facilitate interactions among
different signal pathways Control localization of signal
proteins within a cell.
