Janus kinases (Jaks), signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stats) form a unique, fast track for signal transduction from cell surface receptors to target genes. Jak-Stat signalling contributes in many ways to the integrity of organisms and disturbance of this signalling avenue causes disease in mammalian organisms, including humans.
