Transduction / Signal transduction
The conversion of a signal from one form to another. For example, various types of sensory cells convert or transduce light, pressure, chemicals, etc. into nerve impulses and the binding of many hormones to receptors at the cell surface is transduced into an increase in AMP within the cell.
