NO pathway: what is the effector that causes muscle relaxation?
|
Protein Kinase G
|
|
How does NO synthase work?
|
NO Synthase is activated by Calmodulin
NO synthase takes arginine and oxygen and converts it to citruline and NO |
|
No pathway start --> end
|
1. AcetylCholine is the ligand that activates GPCR
2. Activated G protein (GTP) acitvates PLC 3. PLC cleaves membrane phospholipid --> DAG & IP3 4. IP3 increases cytosolic Ca++ levels 5. Ca++ activates Calmodulin 6. Calmodulin activates NO Synthase 7. NO is produced, diffuses from Epiphelial cell to sm. muscle 8. NO activates cytosolic NO receptor which then converts GTP --cGMP 9. cGMP activates Protein Kinase G (PKG) which causes (Phosphorylates) relaxation of smooth muscle |
|
Ligands for RTKs
|
soluble or membrane bound peptide or protein hormones
NGF, FGF: Fibrogen Growth Factor EGF: Epidermal Growth Factor PDGF insulin |
|
What is HER2?
Where is it overexpressed? |
HER2 is a Receptor tyrosine kinases
HER2 over expression is found in breast cancer |
|
How are RTKs downregulated
|
endocytosis
dephosphorylation |
|
General Activation of RTK
|
ligand binds receptor
causes dimerization & Trans phosphorylation of lip Tyrosines Phosphorylation of additional Tyrosines that are now binding sites for cytosolic proteins |
|
Ligand-induced dimerization of HER1
|
Epidermal Growth Factor is the ligand that activates HER1
Causes loops of subunits to interact --> forms homodimer |
|
Which HERs can Homodimerize?
|
HER1 only
|
|
Which HER is not a kinase?
|
HER3
|
|
Which HER can't bind ligand directly?
|
HER2
is in a preactivated state dimerizes w/ HER1, HER3, & HER4 |
|
RTK signal transduction proteins bind what on RTK?
|
Phosphorylated Tyrosines
|
|
What are 2 commonly conserved domains in signal transduction proteins of the RTK initiated pathway?
|
SH2 - found in GRB2
PTB |
|
GRB2 conserved domains, what do they bind?
|
SH2-binds HER's P-Tyrosines
SH3 binds Sos' proline rich binding sites |
|
what is Ras, & when is it active?
|
Ras is an intracellular GTPase switch
It is active when bound to GTP |
|
Walk through of Ras activation pathway
|
1. EGF binds HER
2. HER dimerizes & phosphorylates lip Tyrosines 3. GRB2 (with SH2 & SH3 domains) binds HER & Sos 4. Sos now activates Ras by causing it to bind GTP |
|
how does Ras activate MAP kinase?
|
RRMM
Ras --> Raf --> MEK --> MAP |
|
in the Ras--> MAP which use ATP to phosphorylate & activate their targets?
|
Raf
MEK MAP |
|
what does MEK Phosphorylate
|
Activates MAP kinase by Phosphorylating 2 AA of lip
Tyrosine, then Threonine which promotes Kinase activity & dimerization |
|
what & where are the targets for MAP kinase in the promotion of c-fos gene?
|
activates p90-RSK in the cytosol
TCF: Ternary Complex Factor in nucleus, MAP Phosphorylates a Serine of TCF |
|
What must MAP kinase be to enter the nucleous?
|
Homo-Dimer
|
|
what & where does p90-RSK do?
|
Uses ATP to Phosphorylate SRF (Serum Response Factor) in nucleus
SRF is a Transcription Factor |
|
walk through how MAP kinase activates the enhancer, SER (Serum Response Element), of c-fos gene
|
1. MAP Kinase Phosphorylates p90-RSK in cytosol
2. MAP Kinase Phosphorylates (dimer does 2) TCF in nucleus p90-RSK Phosphorylates SRF in nucleus 3. TCF & 2 SRFs bind an enhancer region of DNA called SER, which promotes c-fos |
|
what is c-fos?
|
an early gene for mitosis
|
|
Do yeast contain Receptor Tyrosine Kinases?
|
No
|
|
Ste20
|
binds cdc42, which is anchored to PM
Ser/Thr kinase Phosphorylates Ste11 |
|
Ste11
|
binds Ste5 scaffold protein
Ser/Thr kinase analogous to Raf |
|
Ste7
|
binds Ste5 scaffold protein
Dual specificity: Theronine & Tyrosine MEK |
|
Fus3
|
(inactive) bound to Ste5 scaffold
after Fus3 is phosphorylated it goes to nucleus & phosphorylates Dig1 & Dig2, relieving their inhibition of Ste12 similar to MAP kinase |
|
Walk through the mating pathway in yeast
|
1. ligand activates GPCR
2. G-alpha binds GTP & dissociates 3. G-beta/gamma bind Ste-5 scaffold protein 4. Kinase Phosphorylation cascade Ste20--> Ste11 --> Ste7 --> Fus3 5. Fus3 then dissociates & goes to nucleus to Phosphorylate (Inactivate) Dig1 & Dig2 which dissociate from Ste12 6. Ste12 is now able to bind DNA & promote transcription of mating genes |
|
what's the short of Osmoregulatory pathway?
|
High osmolarity activates a kinase cascade --> --> phosphorylating (activates) Transcription Factor Hot1 which promotes transcription of Osmoresponsive Genes
|
|
what Kinases are in both Mating & Osmoregulatory pathways ?
|
Ste20
Ste11 |
|
what are the membrane proteins in the Osmoregulatory pathway?
|
