Receptor: changes conformation to allow substances channel down concentration gradient

channel-linked receptor

Receptor: a coupled one, not an enzyme, but bound to one that can hydrolyze GTP to GDP

G-Protein coupled receptor

Receptor: causes the phosphorylation of proteins

enzymatic receptor

Receptor: binds to hydrophobic ligands

intra (inner) cellular receptor

Receptor: Estrogen, Progesterone, Nitric Oxide, and Vitamin D can bind to a

intracellular receptor

Receptor: Insulin, light, and extracellular growth factor can bind to

Membrane receptor

Alpha subunit of G-protein activated by

replacing GDP with GTP

the cellular response to ligand is made through the combo of

calcium and calmodulin

When acetylcholine receptor sites aren't occupied, the sodium channel remains

closed

When acetylcholine binds to the receptor sites, the sodium channel remains

open

How does a sodium ion (Na+) enter an opened cell channel in an sodium potassium (Na-K) pump?

Na-K pump has previous high concentration on outside of the cell from diffusion of sodium ions

nicotine is chemically similar to the acetylcholine, which means the sodium channel

opens

Lipid soluble hormones diffuse through the

cell membrane

the advantage of a signaling molecule entering a cell, binding, and activating a receptor to induce DNA transcription is

quick gene expression

intracellular receptors are found

in the cytoplasm/nucleus

extracellular receptors are found ... the cytoplasm or nucleus

outside

gene expression steps

1. Hormones cross plasma membrane and bind to cytoplasmic receptors2. Hormone binding after receptor conformation to avoid binding of inhibitor3. Hormone-receptor complex translocates to nucleus4. Hormone-receptor complex binds to DNA, which can also turn on/off transcription5. cellular response is change in gene expression.

Proteins: Epinephrine binding to its receptor activates a

G protein

How can epinephrine have different effects on cells?

Different cells have different receptors, and can activate different enzymes to bind epinephrine.

acetylcholine causes a slow heart beat through an enhancement from a mutated

G-protein, and any inhibitors of its phosphotase activity

cAMP isn't considered a second messenger because it's made from

ATP

Epinephrine binds to the cell membrane of liver cells using a

Beta-adrenergic receptor

Epinephrine binds to protein kinase A and activates

G protein

when epinephrine activates a G protein, it also activates

adenylyl cyclase

Signaling: if epinephrine is produced by central nervous system, it's a part of

endocrine signaling

cAMP is produced by

the action of adenylyl cyclase

cAMP is synthesized

from ATP

cAMP acts as a

second messenger in many different cell types

Epinephrine elicits/cause a system wide response through

Oxidation of glucose to make ATP needed for muscle contractions.

angina pain is treated with

nitroglycerine

Proteins: A single cell surface receptor can activate many ...

G proteins

To conversion of ATP to cAMP is catalyzed by the enzyme ...

adenylyl cyclase

Theenzyme phosphorylase catalyzes the conversion of

glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate

Intracellular receptors bind to n... sequences

nucleotide

Easiest cell signaling molecule to cross cell membrane

small and lipid soluble

Intracellular receptors usually contain binding sites for

both DNA and signaling molecules

The enzyme ... adds phosphates to specific proteins

a-kinase

Binding of a signal molecule to a cell surface receptor activates a G protein, which also activates

phospholipase C

signal receivers that act as enzymes and regulators of gene expression are

receptors

Gene regulation step 1

Hormones cross plasma membrane and bind to cytoplasmic receptors

Gene regulation step 2

Hormone binding after receptor conformation to avoid binding of inhibitor

Gene regulation step 3

Hormone-receptor complex translocates to nucleus

Gene regulation step 4

Hormone-receptor complex binds to DNA, which can also turn on/off transcription

Gene regulation step 5

cellular response is change in gene expression.

Receptors: phosphorylation changes other protein functions of cell through the

kinase receptor

a kinase receptor stuck in the "on state" causes cancer through

overgrowth of corrupted cells

when a protein becomes phosphorylated, it

changes function

Kinase mechanism 1: the removal of phosphate is

dephosphorylation

Kinase mechanism 2: destruction of an enzyme or response protein is caused by

internalize by endocytosis

If a receptor "turns on" its link, G protein, this means G protein functions as a

switch

Cells: Ca2+ stimulates muscle contractions to

skeletal cells

Cells: Ca2+ stimulates hormone secretion to

endocrine cells

Production and Secretion: Epinephrine causes

glucose production and liver secretion.

Oxygen is given through increased

respiration and blood flow.
