touching something causes a ___-gated sodium channel to open
stretch
opening of a stretch-gated sodium channel causes an _____ in the membrane potential
increase
increase in membrane potential triggers the opening of ____-gated ____ channels which open quickly and ____-gated ____ channels which open more slowly
voltage
Na
voltage
K
action potential moves from dentrites down the axon of a neuron to the axon terminal where the are ___-gated ____ channels
voltage
Ca
epinephrine binds to its receptor on a muscle cell. This causes an alteration in the conformation of the receptor. This change allows a _________ to bind to the receptor. When this binding occurs, what two things happen to the bound complex?
heterotrimeric G-protein

1. GDP on the alpha-subunit of the g-protein is exchanged for GTP
2. the alpha-subunit of the G-protein dissociates from the beta,gamma-subunits
after the heterotrimeric G-protein binds to the receptor and the two changes occur, the alpha subunit of the complex can bind the enzyme ________ _____
adenylyl cyclase
adenylyl cyclase catalyzes this reaction
ATP ---> cAMP
the binding of the alpha subunit ____ the enzyme, so that lots of ___ is made. The activation stops when ___ is hydrolyzed
activates
cAMP
GTP
cAMP interacts w/ the enzyme ____ ____ _, causing it to be activated. This enzyme catalyzes the _______ of another ______ on _____ and/or ____ residues
protein kinase A
phosphorylation
kinase
ser and/or thr
when EGF binds to its receptor on the cell, these two things happen
1. the receptor self-associates, forming dimers or other multimers
2. becomes an activated tyr kinase, and the EGF receptor becomes phosphorylated on tyr residues in its cytoplasmic portion
after EGF has binded to its receptor, proteins that have ____ domains bind to the receptor's ______ residues. one example of such a protein is ______, which catalyzes the reaction: _____ ---> ____ + _____
SH2
phosphotyrosine
PLGgamma
PIP2 ---> DAG + IP3
production of PLC's membrane-bound product _____ leads to activation of the enzyme _______, a kinase that acts on ___ and ___ residues of proteins, altering the activity of these proteins.
DAG
protein kinase C
ser and thr
The water-soluble PLC product _____ interacts w/ ___-gated ____ channels in the ER membrane, causing the release of ____ into the cytoplasm
IP3
IP3
Ca++
Ca++
The calcium ion interacts w/ the protein ____ which interacts w/ other proteins found in the ____ of the cell, regulating their activities
calmodulin
cytoplasm
a protein complex that also binds to the activated EGF receptor is ______. This binding results in the activation of a monomeric ___-protein called ____. This protein triggers the activation of a cascade of protein _____s, which eventually result in alteration of _______ of specific ____.
GRB-SOS
G-protein
Ras
kinases
transcription
genes

IV
proteoglycan
type IV and proteoglycan contain glycosaminoglycans, which are long, branched/unbranched _______ w/ repeating units of two ______; these long polymers are covalently bound to a ____ ___ on ___ residues
unbranched
polysaccharides
two monosaccharides
core protein
ser
heparin, heparan sulfate, kaeratan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate
glycosaminoglycan names
Large GAG molecules interact ____ w/ the polysaccharide called _____ _____, making complexes of extremely high molecular weight. both the fiber and network molecules are held together and to cells by linker proteins such as _____ and ______, which bind the cell surface, ______ and _______. The class of cell surface receptors that bind these proteins is called _______.
noncovalently
hyaluronic acid
fibronectin and laminin
