    • TNF pulse -> Short BUMP of Kappa B (purple)
      • Gene A expression is expressed (blue)
  • Right graph:
    • Longer progression of TNF so more KAPPA B is activated
      • -> FEEDBACK LOOP IS SHOWN
      • -> KAPPA B is being inhibited by itself (NEGATIVE FEEDBACK)
        • Gene B and Gene A are both being transcribed
29
Q

MAP Kinase

A

Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase

  • RTK -> RAS signaling -> activated MAP Kinase
    • since RAS (TYR-P) is short lived, reversed by phosphatases

      • by additional phosphorylation of the MAP kinase
  • Amplified signal goes on to:
    • change protein activity / gene expression
30

RTKs vs Ser/Thr Kinases

provide examples

A
  • RTKs - dimerization (
    • ​very similar to GPCR G-proteins
    • almost always activate monomeric GTPases (RAS)
      • ​-> MAP kinase cascades to AMPLIFY signals
    • ​can also inhibit relays
  • Tyr-Kinase ASSOCIATED Receptors (JAK-STAT)
    • ​do NOT have their own kinase domains
      • must associate w/ other cytoplasmic kinases for signaling

frees bad from inhibiting the apoptosis inhibitory protein

promotes CELL SURVIVAL by inhibiting apoptosis

39
Q

How do inhibitors of transduction pathways

INDUCE APOPTOSIS?

A

BAD & IkB

  • BAD is normally inhibiting the apoptosis INHIBITORY protein
    • (DOUBLE NEGATIVE)
