|
Type long-distance signaling |
Endocrine signaling |
|
3 stages of cell signaling |
Reception Transduction Cellular response |
|
Types of plasma membrane receptors |
G protein-coupled receptors Receptor tyrosine kinases Ion channel receptors |
|
G protein-coupled receptors |
receptors are proteins/chains of amino acids |
|
Ligand-Gated Ion Channels |
Receptors that contain a region that acts as a "gate" |
|
Signaling molecule binding sites lead to |
Transmembrane domains (usually 7 or 12) |
|
Step 1 of G protein-coupled receptors |
Inactive G protein has GDP |
|
Step 2 of G protein-coupled receptors |
Activation of receptor by interaction with G protein GDP replaced by GTP |
|
Step 3 of G protein-coupled receptors |
Protein moves along lipid bilayer and binds to enzyme, activating it |
|
Step 4 of G protein-coupled receptors |
GTP is hydrolyzed to GDP |
|
Step 1 of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases |
Receptor tyrosine kinase proteins are two inactive monomers
Ligand-binding site is open
α helix in the membrane |
|
Step 2 of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases |
Signaling molecule enters ligand-binding site Dimer (2 subunits) is formed ATP is involved |
|
Step 3 of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases |
ATP phosphorylates tyrosine kinase regions and fully activates receptor tyrosine kinase Pi bonds to tyrosine |
|
Step 4 of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases |
Inactive relay proteins become active when bound to tyrosine |
|
Step 1 of Ligand-Gated Ion Channels |
Closed form |
|
Step 2 of Ligand-Gated Ion Channels |
Open form
Signaling molecule (ligand) binds to site and opens the gate Ions cause cellular response |
|
Step 3 of Ligand-Gated Ion Channels |
Gate closes again |
|
Reversibility |
Binding is reversible in each receptor case |
