Signal Transduction - what are the three steps? |
Reception
Transduction
Induction |
|
Reception |
Signal cells (gibberelin) bond to receptor proteins (endosperm cell) |
|
Transduction |
Protein converts (G-Protein (gibberelin)) from inactive state to an active state (GDP --> GTP) (a lot like ATP process) Activates transcription factors |
|
Transcription Factors |
Causes DNA to be able to read Message is amplified |
|
Induction |
Alpha-amylase is produced Amylose is hydrolyzed into glucose by the enzyme Alpha-Amylase |
|
Symplast |
Cell's cytoplasm is an interconnected continuum |
|
Plasmodesmata |
Symplastic movement between cells through the Plasmodesmata |
|
Enzyme Characteristics |
Usually proteins Substrate specific Reusable Temperature/pH sensitive |
|
Active Site |
Location of the reaction |
|
Allosteric Site |
Where the enzyme can be turned on and off |
|
Cofactor |
inorganic component that assists the enzyme |
|
Coenzyme |
organic component that assists the enzyme |
|
Types of Enzymes |
Kinase Isomerase Dehydrogenase
|
|
Kinase |
adds a phosphate group |
|
Isomerase |
changes isomers |
|
Isomers |
Same chemical formula - different structure |
|
