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 |
|

|
The water-soluble PLC product _____ interacts w/ ___-gated ____ channels in the ER membrane, causing the release of ____ into the cytoplasm
|
IP3

|
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 ____.
