Ultrasensitivity in signaling cascades revisited: Linking local and global ultrasensitivity estimations.

Ultrasensitive response motifs, capable of converting graded stimuli into binary responses, are well-conserved in signal transduction networks. Although it has been shown that a cascade arrangement of multiple ultrasensitive modules can enhance the system's ultrasensitivity, how a given combina...
